According to Flyershistory.net, the Flyers are 85-22-4 when Smith sings. Smith, who died in 1986 at age 79, became a lucky charm and sang live at the Spectrum before Flyers games on four occasions, including once in each of the Flyers’ NHL title runs.
Sharp played at the Spectrum, home of the AHL’s Philadelphia Phantoms until 2006, and he also knows what’s it’s like to don the Flyers uniform when things haven’t exactly gone as planned at at Wachovia Center.
Not that you can hear her for most the song as the Flyers fans whip themselves into frenzy. It’s going to be loud, Blackhawks forward Patrick Sharp said. They’re going to be all over us and supporting their team. So I think we’re all looking forward to that.
The Orange Crush comes out and fans are very knowledgeable, and certainly let the home team know if they’re not playing well, said Sharp, who played parts of three seasons with Flyers before he was traded to the Blackhawks. it’s going to be a fun atmosphere for everybody. As a team, we come out to quiet them the best we can.
