Vincent05 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 A No. 10 will be stitched onto the shoulder of the Flyers' Alumni jersey in honor of Brad McCrimmon. McCrimmon was killed tragically in a plane crash of the Kontinental Hockey League's Lokomotiv in Yaroslavl, Russia along with the entire team.McCrimmon was a defenseman for the Flyers from 1982-87. He ranks ninth all-time in Flyers history among defensemen with 187 points, recording 35 goals and 152 assists as well as 355 penalty minutes in 367 games for the club.

jammer2 Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Hard to believe he's really gone. Classy move by the Flyers, I would expect nothing less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blocker Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I got the impression that it was Mark Howe's idea and push that got McCrimmon's number on the jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
