“It’s truly a special honor,” Recchi said. “I loved playing in a great city, and a great run organization.”
“The Flyers Hall of Fame began with Ed Snider and our Flyers Alumni and has become so enriched to our organization that I am thrilled to see it grow with the induction of Mark Recchi.” – Dan Hilferty said.
It’s very ironic that Recchi will be inducted into the fire hall of fame against this former team the Boston Bruins, however, he is worthy of being the 28th member to be inducted into the Flyers Hall of Fame. What an honor it is for him and his family.
