  • December 29, 1972 -- In a game highlighted by a brawl that spilled into the stands, the Flyers and Canucks battled to a 4-4 draw in Vancouver.

The game featured a massive donnybrook 7:31 into the third period and totaled 26 minors, eight majors and two misconducts. While Bob Kelly and Jim Hargreaves fought, Don Saleski and Barry Wilcox tangled along the glass which escalated when a Canucks' fan, a dentist by profession, reached over and yanked Saleski's hair nearly lifting him off the ice. Seeing this, several Flyers' players got involved and Barry Ashbee whacked the patron. The Flyers were issued citations requiring their appearance to Vancouver police on February 9, 1973, the team's next visit to Vancouver. Jim Robson, a local broadcaster, said of the dentist “He should have been pulling teeth, not hair!”

Another future Flyer Bob Dailey scored consecutive second period goals to narrow Vancouver's gap to 5-3 but Lonsberry had the momentum killer sixteen seconds later at 19:56 of the middle period.

  • February 18, 1976 -- Bill Barber's controversial goal with 49 seconds remaining snapped a 4-4 tie and the Flyers won this rescheduled game 6-4 at Vancouver. Ken Lockett, the Canucks' goalie, went behind the net to play the puck and then hit the ice in a three-player pile-up involving Bobby Clarke and Vancouver d-man Bob Dailey. Flyers' head coach Fred Shero said "You mean something was wrong on that goal? How the hell does Clarke get out of Lockett's way when he has someone 6-4 280 (Dailey) on top of him." Lockett said "Somehow he (Clarke) fell on top of me and he (Dailey) was trying to pry him off my back." An angry Canucks' head coach Phil Maloney said "Everything is convenient for Bobby. Do you want to do this now Bobby? Is everything all right Bobby? He has carte blanche out there. Philadelphia isn't that great. If they had to play the game the way it should be played, there's no way they'd be in first place. The real secret of their success is that they don't get half the penalties that should be called against them." After the goal, Harold Snepsts and Dailey were issued misconducts and Dailey was eventually suspended two games for pushing referee Bruce Hood. Vancouver was led by Bobby Lalonde (2-0-2), who tied the score at 4-4 with 1:47 to play, and Dennis Kearns (1-2-3).

  • November 19, 1995 -- Chris Therien (1-1-2) scored on the first shot in OT to lift the Flyers to a 3-2 home win. Ron Hextall made 34 saves including 15 in the third period and 26 over the last two periods. Anatoli Semenov also had a goal and an assist. Eric Lindros said "We had great goaltending, but we were shaky everywhere else. Vancouver played a great game and worked hard so Hexy had to be a wall back there. I think we grabbed one here tonight. I think it was an early Christmas present."
  • December 31, 1995 -- Alexander Mogilny's goal with five seconds to play capped a 3-goal rally and the teams played to a 5-5 tie in the first meeting played at General Motors Place. Chris Therien and Trent Klatt scored third-period goals to give the Flyers a 5-2 lead with 10:25 left. But Vancouver's comeback began with Russ Courtnall's PPG midway in the third period then Martin Gelinas scored a SHG with 1:57 to play. Philly went 3-for-7 on PPs. Mogilny (2-1-3), Jyrki Lumme (1-2-3) and Martin Gelinas (1-2-3) each led Vancouver with three points. In the closing moments of OT, during a PP, Mogilny tapped his stick on the ice as he was left wide open but teammate Cliff Ronning never saw him and time expired. Later, Mogilny said "I had a chance to win the game." Neither team had a shot on goal in overtime.
  • December 1, 1996 -- Scott Daniels' goal snapped a 3-3 tie and the Flyers won 4-3 at home. Afterwards, Daniels said "It (Kevin Haller's shot) just kind of hit my stick. There was no skill involved, thank God." The score was 1-1 through two periods and then the teams alternated five third period goals. Rod Brind'Amour and John LeClair each had two points but LeClair's goal was one of controversy as Vancouver netminder Cory Hirsch said "I do not see how they can see the puck. I am not here to judge the replay system, but it was a good five seconds before I slid into the net. I do not even know where the puck was. How can they tell where it is? Maybe they made a judgement call. I guess eventually it went in. I have always been taught to use your own judgement. It doesn't seem that the referees have their own judgement any more. It's more like if it's tight, go to the replay system."
  • December 31, 1996 -- The sizzling Flyers, 12-0-2 in the last 14 games, scored four straight third period goals en route to a 5-3 win at Vancouver. Goals by Eric Lindros (1-0-1), John LeClair (1-1-2) and Mikael Renberg (1-0-1) gave the Flyers a 4-2 lead. Philly outshot the Canucks 12-4 in the third period and 30-20 in the game. The Canucks' Mark Wotton scored two of his three career NHL goals in this game. Paul Coffey was carried off on a stretcher after laying motionless on the ice for about five minutes from a collision with teammate Eric Lindros and he missed the next five games.
  • December 31, 1997 -- Ron Hextall made 27 saves and the Flyers handed the Canucks the franchise's worst home shutout loss ever, 8-0. Philly scored four goals in the first period and matched the total in the third period. Eric Lindros (0-4-4), who had three assists in the opening period, John LeClair (2-0-2) and Colin Forbes (2-0-2) led the offense. The win elevated the Flyers into first place in the Eastern Conference. Arturs Irbe stopped six of nine shots before being replaced by Corey Hirsch (30 saves, 35 shots) with 9:37 to play in the first period. Afterwards, a despondant Canucks' head coach Mike Keenan said "Well, these guys are just asking to be moved. Maybe they think it's too difficult for them to do what I ask. But that's not NHL hockey. I think some of our players quit, while some of them continued to play on" after a 2-9-3 record in December. There were five fights and Vancouver had 76 PIMs to the Flyers' 54. Brantt Myrhes-Donald Brashear (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJwfvz-fhHo); Colin Forbes-Scott Walker ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Mv1oNE92Zc); Luke Richardson-Chris McAllister ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kl9vQH4NuoE); Dan Kordic-Gino Odjick (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIkpkPZlsgw); Kordic-Brashear (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWYip8_HsXA). Lindros was sucker-punched by Odjick (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtM6fAddBn8).

  • March 24, 1998 -- Dave Babych was traded by Vancouver with Philadelphia's 5th round choice (previously acquired, Flyers selected Garrett Prosofsky) in the 1998 Entry Draft for the Flyers' 3rd round choice (Justin Morrison) in the 1998 Entry Draft.
  • October 19, 1998 -- Trent Klatt was sent to the Canucks for Vancouver's 6th round choice (later traded to Atlanta - Atlanta selected Jeff Dwyer) in the 2000 Entry Draft. Klatt was placed on waivers earlier in the month due to a surplus of forwards "I didn't want to leave the Flyers. But seeing the way things were going, playing every other day, it's not a situation to be in, either. If I play more with them, it's worth it," said Klatt.
  • November 29, 1998 -- John LeClair had four goals and Eric Lindros had five assists in the Flyers' 6-2 home win. The new Legion of Doom Line of LeClair (4-0-4), Lindros (0-5-5) and Keith Jones (1-1-2) combined for five goals, six assists and eleven points. The Flyers trailed 2-1 through two periods but out-scored the Canucks 5-0 in the third period. The barrage began with LeClair's tying goal 50 seconds into the third period. His next goal gave the Flyers a 3-2 lead with 5:07 to play. Jones made it 4-2 with 4:20 to play. LeClair's third goal of the period, his second career four-goal game, made it 5-2 with 1:04 remaining. Chris Gratton finished the scoring and ended a 21-game goal scoring drought. Team records for most goals in a game (4 by LeClair) and assists in a period (4 by Lindros) were tied. Lindros' five assists tied the second highest by a Flyers' player, one shy of his team-record set the prior year at Ottawa. The Flyers scored five times on 12 shots in the third period against Garth Snow. The last four goals came in a span of 4:33 in the game's final 5:07. Ron Hextall made 20 saves.

Desjardins also scored with about three minutes to play in the third period to give the Flyers a 5-3 lead. Brian Boucher made 29 saves. The Flyers scored three PPGs in the game but gave up a pair of SHGs in the first period. Petr Hubacek scored for the Flyers (his NHL career would span six games and this was his lone point).

  • December 31, 2001 -- Simon Gagne scored with 2.8 seconds left in the Flyers' 2-1 win in Vancouver. Jeremy Roenick fed Gagne from behind the net on a perfect dish. Said Gagne: "I just had to put the puck in the net. The puck came right to me and Dan Cloutier tried to grab it. I had no idea how much time was left at the point but pretty much the top of the net was wide open." Roman Cechmanek made 22 saves. Matt Cooke scored Vancouver's only goal with 3:58 to play. John LeClair snapped a scoreless tie with 2:18 to play in the second period. The Canucks had a goal disallowed in the second period when a whistle was blown though replays showed the puck was never covered by Cechmanek. It marked the fifth time in the last seven years that the Flyers played New Years' Eve in Vancouver. The Flyers were 4-0-1 (tie) in those games.
  • March 4, 2003 -- Roman Cechmanek was superb with a 41-save shutout in the Flyers' 3-0 home win. Cechmanek was at his best by making 17 saves in the second period. All three goals came in the first period and Canucks' goalie Petr Skudra was replaced after giving up goals to Michal Handzus and Donald Brashear in the first 2:49. After the game, Cechmanek's comments included a reference to his 2002 post-season blowup "Last season I was upset because I wondered if they were serious. I know our players are good. Now we're talking about it. We're trying to be better as a team because the playoffs will be tough for us.'' Keith Primeau said of Cechmanek "He has more confidence right now. And that gives us confidence." Head Coach Ken Hitchcock said of Cechmanek "He's involved in leadership meetings now and he is taking that seriously. He is at ease. He is at ease being a leader. He's a very, very competitive man." Primeau knocked down Ed Jovanovski in a fight: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPJG3EPOh6A

Somewhere, FL
With apologies to the Bard:

Now is the autumn of our discontent
Made glorious summer by this putz of Fletch;
And all the clouds that lour'd upon our house
In the deep bosom of the ice buried.
Now are our brows bound with horrid dump ins;
Our bruised eyes haunted by the face of Vigneault;
Our stern alarums caused by the grease of Nate;
Our dreadful marches to shitbag goal songs;
Grim-visaged and stupid hockey hath rotted his wrinkled brain.
