As a continuation of PSN’s playoff series, we now move onto some notable game sixes in playoff history. This time, we’re going to take you back to an often forgotten about season. Game six of Stanley Cup Finals against the Oilers in 1987 was a huge bounce-back game for Philly, as they took down the Oilers 3-2. The Oilers took were up 3-2 in the series, so this game forced a crazy game seven. Game six is arguably one of the best games in Flyers’ history. In fact, Bleacher Report suggested it may be the greatest playoff series of all time.
