The franchise’s Philadelphia year (1972–73) is best remembered for the signing of Bernie Parent and Derek Sanderson — two NHL stars who briefly defected to the WHA before returning to the NHL. The franchise relocated to Vancouver in 1973 after the Philadelphia Flyers blocked the team’s arena access, then to Calgary in 1975 as the Cowboys.
