Nicely done.
The Flyers PP & PK needed EMS last night. Dang, boys. (I will never get tired of the Hart/Smith duet. And does it make me old if I recognized all the players in the tribute video?)
Beautifully done.
This was pure class. What happened DURING the game, however…not so much.
And then it all went south…
This tribute was ruined by the fans who had act like kids I mean Ed Snider himself would had been very disappointed with those idiots for throwing the bracelets onto the ice because the Flyers were losing.
what song was used for the tribute…..and beautiful tribute
Mason almost got hit by the Caps team bus as he was making his way to the Flyers bus just after the game! Luckily the bus went right through his legs! This happened to Hextall around this time in 1987!
lauren, thank you, your father, and "ED", for the class, dignity, & honor ORANGE & Black stand for!! good night & good hockey !! LVK 👍🏒🏒
As a Loyal Flyers Fan I Remember Watching This Tribute On TV That Night Almost Crying During The Tribute and During God Bless America Just a Beautiful Tribute Which Included Souvenir By My Favorite Singer Billy Joel Go Flyers!
I remember when Kate would sing at the Flyers games in the 1970's the Spectrum would go nuts and big bad Bruins were in deep trouble, there was no way we would lose. Cause of Mr Synder in every neighborhood we were playing street hockey and wearing our Flyers jerseys or shirts with such pride.
Nice to know the loser who decided to scream out "F*** the Pens" had no respect.
Wat
lauren hart is awesome.
Such a tragic death for Philadelphia fans, yet they couldn't keep the fucking wrist bands on. And that jackass who screamed "FUCK THE PENS" makes me sick. Not the right place or time bud. It was kinda funny, but just terribly disrespectful. Rest In Peace, Ed. Even a year after, we still miss you. Thank you for creating Philadelphia Hockey. You are a true hero.
God Bless America
thank u so much ed u won't ever b forgotten I love the flyers and I'm glad u made them a reality in 1967. ull be in our hearts forever
Rip ed Snyder thank u for creating the flyers the team we love been a fan n will b a fan 4ever
Too bad Lauren didn't pay tribute to Kate Smith recently when she had the chance. Instead she went right along with the "Kate Smith was a racist" crowd, without a shred of real evidence to back it up. Kate sang a song in 1931 that others sang too, and not a single complaint was ever made about it until 88 years later. Kate's legacy is pure and it's intact. Come join "God Bless Kate Smith ~ The Great Kate Smith Fan Group". We have a ton of her music there too.
Its Kate's song…..but Lauren does her proud.
Typical Philadelphia sports fans… Leave it to them to ruin a moment of silence. Never mind what they did two hours later with the bracelets.
The Capitals and Penguins in recent years were good at ruining "Kate Smith Anthem" games for the Flyers, which Philly has historically kicked ass in.
The wrong thing the flyers did taking God bless America song away
When I was younger, I didn’t understand why the Flyers did this, and didn’t appreciate it, but now I know the significance of this, I find this cool to watch
Ed snider is missed rn more than ever
