I think the 86-87 team, and to a lesser extent, the 88-89 team (which was mediocre at best but went to Game 6 of the Wales Conference Finals) spoiled me. The Flyers had been a team (to that point) with a history of overachieving and beating more talented teams with heart and grit.
I'd give up a lot to have the Poulin-Propp-Howe-McCrimmon PK back.
During the Lindros era I felt that they were consistently outcoached by Detroit and New Jersey and never once beat a team with superior talent.
