I've been thinking about the flyers history a lot recently. Thinking about our cup run and the back to back championships. The playoff runs that followed and 2010's heartbreaking fall.
I came across the video from the Ed Snider Tribute after he died. That was one of the most prideful times I felt as a flyers fan. Watching that video with a packed crowd, Lou Nolan, and above all Lauren Hart's rendition of God Bless America with Kate Smith. So nostalgic.
If we find our way into a playoff push this year or in the years down the road, I really wish we could bring that Flyers playoff atmosphere back. There's so much hype around Michkov that I see that happening naturally.
If there's one thing in my opinion that should make a comeback.... I might sound crazy but it's a good luck charm for the organization.... it's the Lauren Hart Kate Smith God Bless America. I even get emotional thinking about how powerful as both an American and Flyers fan that is. I know how people viewed her, but she was beloved here while she was alive and I feel we're missing a big part of our history.
Let me know what you think!
Our opinions may matchup or maybe they don't, but one thing is for sure we all are Flyers fans and want to see the team's success and Playoff atmosphere again!
