The 2014 Olympic ice hockey competition features five members of the Philadelphia Flyers who are each competing for their respective countries. Here is a look back at the best performances by members of the Flyers at the Olympic games since NHL players started participating in the Olympics in 1998.
In order to qualify for this list, a player had to be a member of the Flyers during the Olympics in question. If he had a strong performance in the Olympics the year before or after joining the Orange and Black, it does not make him eligible for this list.
The top criteria to qualify here is the players’ individual performances at the Olympics in the specific year in question. If there is a tie, a player on a team that wins a medal will get the edge over a player who did not.
Feel free to comment on any of the players on this list or to mention anybody you feel belongs but was omitted. As always, indicate why you feel the way you do.
