High Flyer: A quick look at Eric Lindros’ career

A look back at the career of Eric Lindros, the former Flyers center who was voted Monday into the Hockey Hall of Fame:

* Was the No. 1 overall pick by Quebec in 1991.

* Acquired by the Flyers for Peter Forsberg, Mike Ricci, Steve Duchesne, Ron Hextall, Kerry Huffman, Chris Simon, a first-round pick in 1993 (Jocelyn Thibault), a first-round pick in 1994 (Nolan Baumgartner, Washington) and $15 million cash.

* Fifth in Flyers history in points (659) and assists (369), eighth in goals (290), and seventh in power-play goals (82).

* But the most telling statistic of Lindros’ career is that he is first in team history in points per game at 1.
