Ranking the top 10 Philadelphia Flyers of all time
5. Eric Lindros, C (1992-2000)
The Quebec Nordiques, now the Colorado Avalanche, selected Lindros with the No. 1 overall pick in the 1991 NHL Entry Draft. However, he refused to play for them and was traded to Philadelphia. Lindros helped lead the team to the Stanley Cup in 1997 and won the Hart Memorial Trophy, which recognizes the most valuable player in the NHL, in 1995.
