Bob Kelly – Flyers/RW-LW (1971-80) Bob “the Hound” Kelly was a significant part of the Broad Street Bullies toughness. Kelly was not only one of the league’s most-feared enforcers, he, like teammate Dave Schultz, could also put the puck in the net. In his ten seasons in the orange and black, Kelly scored 14 or more goals five times and potted 22 in 1976-77. Kelly’s greatest moment was scoring the Stanley Cup-winning goal for the Flyers on May 27th, 1975 against the Buffalo Sabres in Buffalo. Kelly flew down the ice like a runaway train, and followed the puck around behind the net. The 5’10” Kelly out-hustled and out-muscled the 6’3” Sabre defenseman Jerry “King Kong” Korab, and came from behind the net and slid the puck past Sabre goalie Gerry Desjardins 11 seconds into the 3rd period of game 6. The Flyers would win the game 2-0 and win their 2nd Stanley Cup.
