Flyers History

Before we begin our trek through all the great National Hockey League moments that occurred on this date, all of us at The Hockey Writers wish a very happy Mothers’ Day to all the moms out there. There are generations of hockey players who never would have achieved their success without the love and support from their “hockey moms.” Bobby’s Big Day Bobby Orr has always enjoyed May 10. Whether he was collecting hardware or scoring iconic goals, he made plenty of history on this date. Orr is a true legend of the game. (Photo by Adam Glanzman/Getty Images) May 10, 1968, Orr was named winner of the Norris Trophy for being voted the NHL’s top defenseman. This was his first Norris win and he went on to win every single one between this date and 1975. His eight-straight Norris Trophy wins are still the NHL all-time record. The closest anyone ever came to repeating this was when Nicklas Lidstrom of the Detroit Red Wings won it six out of seven years, between 2001 and...

Hockey Hall of Famer, Stanley Cup champion, and one of the best defensemen in NHL history are just a few of the ways to describe Chris Pronger and what he did for the game of hockey. He was a physical threat who brought size to the table at 6-foot-6. He had a deadly powerful shot, and provided stable support in the scoring column. He really brought it all to whoever he suited up for. He finished up his playing career as a Philadelphia Flyer, and was a force to be reckoned with all the way up until he officially hung up his skates. Pre-Flyers History Pronger started his professional journey as a member of the Hartford Whalers. He was drafted by the franchise second overall in the 1993 Draft. He only played a couple of years with the club before being dealt to the St. Louis Blues for winger Brendan Shanahan. The Blues are where Pronger spent the majority of his career, being a solid complement on the backend to forwards like Brett Hull, Pierre Turgeon, and Pavol Demitra as well...
