Located in Toronto, Canada, the Hockey Hall of Fame houses many historical artifacts and stories about hockey.

The team was not as well represented as FlyersNation.com's Drew Wheeler expected when he visited the site.
Wheeler visited the HHOF as a Flyers fan, and it was difficult to find the entrance which is troubling given the Hall of Fame's importance.
A Justin Bailey Stadium Series jersey was the first piece of Flyers memorabilia Wheeler saw, rather than, say, Claude Giroux or Dave Schultz? What is going on here?

As for division cases, who represents the Flyers? Carter Hart, who is probably not going to be a Flyer at this point.
As you enter the hall, Eric Lindros gets prime real estate near the entrance, with a display case that focuses a great deal on the Flyers. Despite being the third Captain in Flyers history, Bobby Clarke does not have his own display and gets less attention than Phil Esposito, who stands right above Clarke's jersey.
Despite once having been a Flyer, Chris Pronger now tends to display more Blues content, with which he has a better track record.
Ryan Ellis and Jordan Weal were included in the team case, which Wheeler took pictures of. The HHOF has an Eric Lindros stick, a Phantom jersey, and a Mike Richard glove from the 2009-2010 season, to balance it out.

Except for Sid the Kid's equipment from his golden goal in 2010, none of the players on the international wing were Flyers.
While the Flyers section of the Hockey Hall of Fame is scant and has a few great sections, the curation for the team case could be improved; otherwise, Wheeler enjoys seeing the Stanley Cup, Selke and Norris Trophies up close.
