They have speed, they have heart, they have talent and they're also champions.
The team won the Powerhockey Cup last summer.
On their uniforms is the name "Pat." It's a nod to the team's founder Pat Hilferty who passed away in 2017.

They hope other NHL teams will follow the Flyers' lead and sponsor wheelchair hockey to include all athletes who want to play.
