Orangecat Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Don't kill me if this is an easy one, but my mom bought me this signed photo from a yard sale. #9 flyers, and it looks like Lindros in the back wearing the C. I have always been a Flyers fan but didn't get serious about hockey until I played in high school, so this is before my time. Thanks!

JackStraw Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Looks like Zubrus. He was drafted by the Flyers and played for them from '96-'99. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are listed below:Pelle Eklund Philadelphia Flyers (86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94)http://www.halloffamememorabilia.com/p-589021-pelle-eklund-autographed-hand-signed-hockey-card-philadelphia-flyers-1990-upper-deck-aw-56043.aspxRob DiMaio Philadelphia Flyers (95, 96)Dainius Zubrus Philadelphia Flyers (97, 98, 99)http://www.autograph-cards.com/Cards%5CBigCards%5C047185.jpgMark Greig Philadelphia Flyers (99, 00, 01, 03)Looks like zubrus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarsippius Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Wow, didn't remember Eklund being here in 94. The years kinda mush together after a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Podein25 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 So it's not Mark Greig? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poulin20 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 (edited) Also the readable letters in the autograph look like DZ if anyone still is not convinced I will guess that this is the 1997 playoffs as Lindros and Paul Coffey (in the back wearing 77) are sporting beards there.

DaGreatGazoo Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 @Poulin20So, that picture was taken before Coffey got run over by Lindros and got a concussion?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poulin20 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 @Poulin20So, that picture was taken before Coffey got run over by Lindros and got a concussion?? LOL I totally forgot about that as 1996-1997 was like "the lost season" for me as I was studying in London (UK) that year. If this is playoffs then the pic actually happened after the concussion as that was mid season I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaGreatGazoo Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I just remember thinking..WOW they signed Paul Coffey...and then thinking..WOW Paul Coffey really sucks now. :wacko: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poulin20 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Yeah we have a penchant for coming late to the party with most of these guys. Dale Hawerchuk, Adam Oates, Paul Coffey, Peter Forsberg come to mind right off the top of my head.Heck Gretzky probably would have sucked as a Flyer too.
