Rick MacLeish – Flyers/C (1970-81, 1983-84) Slick skating Rick MacLeish was the first true “sniper” of the Flyers with his wicked wrister, and effortless skating. MacLeish was the Flyers first 50-goal scorer and second 100-point scorer, notching his 100th point (his 50th goal) just two days after Bobby Clarke hit the century mark at the end of the 1972-73 season. MacLeish scored 30 or more goals seven times for the Flyers. His biggest goal came on May 19th, 1974 in game six of the 1973-74 Stanley Cup Finals. MacLeish deflected a Moose Dupont shot past Boston Bruins goaltender Gilles Gilbert in the first period. It was the game’s only goal as the Flyers won game 6, 1-0 and captured their first Stanley Cup. MacLeish, a three-time NHL All Star entered the Flyers Hall of Fame in 1990.
