A pleasant good evening everybody, and welcome to Flyers hockey. I began watching hockey religiously during the lockout-shortened season in 1994-95.  Eric Lindros was the top young player in the game, the orange and black were returning to the playoffs after a 5 year break, and a lot of the games were on Prism.

JJ was partnered with Gary Dornhoefer then, and the two made a pretty good team. JJ front and center, with his Motley Crue behind him.
