DOWNLOAD EBOOKPublished to mark the club's 50th season in the National Hockey League, The Philadelphia Flyers at 50 sets a new standard for contemporary sports history. It tells the story of a remarkable hockey club with passion and detail. On the ice, in the dressing room and behind the scenes, this 600-page large-format illustrated book documents how the Flyers and their fans have maintained the passion that is their hallmark through great successes, valiant losses and even withering tragedies. Building on his 1996 best-seller Full Spectrum, writer Jay Greenberg invested three years interviewing 263 people who have told the team's story with pride and candor, revealing, in some cases for the first time, factors that shaped the franchise. Trades, retirements, injuries, untimely deaths, tough decisions and shift-by-shift game action combine to reveal what it means to be a Flyer. "It's an honor to wear this logo," said current captain Claude Giroux. "Being a Flyer meant everything to me," said Mark Recchi, a feeling echoed by Cup-winner Andre Dupont when he said, "They gave me a chance to be part of history." Includes a message from owner Ed Snider who passed away on April 11, 2016, as well as profiles of 50 Flyer heroes and descriptions of the club's 50 most important wins and significant events This comprehensive book has it all.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn a city known as home to some of the sporting world's biggest stars, few have ever shined as brightly as the Philadelphia Flyers' Bernie Parent, and this autobiography shares how he became one of the most sensational goalies in NHL history. The catchphrase "Only the Lord saves more than Bernie Parent" became ubiquitous in Philadelphia as Parent won two Vezina Trophies as the league's top goaltender, two Conn Smythe Trophies as playoff MVP, and two Stanley Cup championships, but this work shows how his on-the-ice exploits were only a part of his amazing story. After suffering a career-ending eye injury in 1979, Parent's life took a turn for the worse, a time during which he battled alcoholism and watched his marriage end in divorce. In the end, however, facing the fears that had plagued him all his life led Parent to find solace and happiness once again. In "Unmasked," Parent traces his life and career from his days as a youngster learning to skate to his current role as a Flyers ambassador and public speaker. Featuring rare photos from his personal archive and accompanying text from legendary Philadelphia sports columnist Stan Hochman, this life story gives Parent's millions of fans a never-before-seen glimpse into the life of a hockey icon.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"RUNNING AN ARENA WAS NO GAME I had many ideas on making the Philadelphia Flyers and the Spectrum zing, some solid- some zany. Ed Snider pretty much let me call the shots, as long as I ran the more risky or costly ones by him. If I couldnt convince him, Id try to tamper them down from Just Plain Wild to Lets Hope We Dont Get Arrested. I was a riverboat gambler, Ed was a card counter. I doubled down, he cut the odds. I was a swaggering Sagittarian. He was the cautious Capricorn. I dubbed us Flash & Cash. Between us, we went to work selling hockey, Philly Style. Blades, Bands, and Ballers is Lou Scheinfelds inside story of running the Spectrum with Ed Snider. Stories include the Jerry Wolman blood feud, Sinatra and The Philly Mob, making the Broad Street Bullies, Smokin Joe Fraziers snub, Elvis sad final stop, Dr. J. and the 76ers, the Electric Factorys impact, Rizzo and The Rolling Stones, the Kate Smith debacle and many more"--
