As a continuation of PSN’s playoff series, we now move onto some notable game three’s in playoff history. This time, we’re going to take you back to an often forgotten about season. Game three of Stanley Cup Finals against the Oilers in 1987 was a huge bounce-back game for Philly, as they took down the Oilers 5-3. The Oilers took the first two games by a slim margin, so this win was huge for the Flyers to get back into the series.
Heading into the season, the Oilers were heavy Stanley Cup favorites. I mean, they had the Great One after all.
