Retired numbers[]

Bill Barber plaque hhof

Bill Barber is one of only three Flyers to be a member of both the Hockey Hall of Fame and Flyers Hall of Fame, and have his number retired.

The Flyers have retired four of their jersey numbers and also taken a number out of circulation. Barry Ashbee, Bernie Parent, and Bobby Clarke had their numbers retired less than a year after retiring while Bill Barber's number 7 was retired six years after his retirement but only after Brian Dobbin, Craig Fisher, and Jay Wells had worn it in at least one game.[5] Following Pelle Lindbergh's death on November 11, 1985, his number 31 was removed from circulation. Though it is not officially retired, no Flyers player has worn the number 31 since.[6] Also out of circulation is the number 99 which was retired league-wide for Wayne Gretzky on February 6, 2000. Gretzky did not play for the Flyers during his 20-year NHL career and no Flyers player had ever worn the number 99 prior to its retirement.[7]
