This Day in Philly Sports History - January 17, 2025

It's a Feel Good Friday, Divisional Playoff Edition. The Flyers won yesterday 5-3 against the Islanders. 5 different players scored goals as the Flyers have now scored points in 4 straight games. The Temple Owls knocked off the #18 ranked Memphis Tigers and will the weather be a factor in Sunday's game? Today's Question of the Day, "What are you most worried about on Sunday?" Today we are forgiving Gabe Kapler for his 2 years as Phillies manager. Forgiveness doesn't mean we have to like the person. On this day in 1973 the Flyers named Bobby Clarke as their captain. Clarke became the youngest player to wear the C in NHL history at 23 years old. Clarke was helped lead the Flyers to back to back Stanley Cups.
