Philadelphia Flyers L.P.
 PROFILE
The Philadelphia Flyers seem to be on automatic pilot. The hockey club is a perennial playoff team, but keeps skating short of its ultimate goal, the Stanley Cup. Anchored by All-Star forwards Simon Gagne and goaltender Roman Cechmanek, the Flyers are ranked as the second most valuable in the NHL (behind the New York Rangers). The club plays in the First Union Center and is run by president and general manager Bobby Clarke, a member of the Flyers' infamous "Broad Street Bullies" of the 1970s (so named because of their bruising style of play). That squad won back-to-back Stanley Cups in 1974 and 1975, even though the team had just entered the league in 1967. Chairman Ed Snider and cable giant Comcast own the Flyers.
