All this recent talk about the Flyers history and size got me to wondering, "How do the Flyers stack up to the rest of the NHL, size wise?" It's a legitmate question, after all.
The 90's Flyers, thanks to Bobby Clarke, were obsessed with it. Unfortunately, their size proved to be a hinderance when they couldn't hit what they couldn't catch. The Broad Street Bullies may not have been the biggest team in the NHL at the time, but they certainly were the most aggressive.
As of right now, with the current roster in place, the Flyers are the third youngest team in the NHL at 27.
