Bobby Clarke

An Ice Hockey Wiki article.

Robert Earle "Bobby" Clarke (b. August 13th 1949 in Flin Flon, Manitoba, Canada) is a former professional centre of the National Hockey League, who spent his whole career with the Philadelphia Flyers.

Drafted by the Philadelphia Flyers in the 2nd round (#17) of the 1969 NHL Amateur Draft, Clarke was a skilled playmaker who had three 100 points seasons and appeared in eight NHL All-Stars Games. He was also a defensive ace and a tough player; he captained the Broad Street Bullies during their prime time in the 1970s, winning two times the Stanley Cup with them, thanks to their rough and tireless style of play.
