Throughout the summer months, philadelphiaflyers.com will dig through the archives here at the Wachovia Center and take a look back at some classic moments in the history of the Wachovia Spectrum as the building prepares to close its doors forever.

Mark Recchi came to the Philadelphia Flyers via trade late in 1992, and in his first full season as a Flyer in 1992-93, had one of the most dominating offensive seasons in franchise history.

On April 1, 1993, the Flyers hosted the Los Angeles Kings at the Spectrum in a make-up game for a contest that had to be canceled earlier in the season when inclement weather shattered a window at the arena late in the first period. Sitting on 49 goals, Recchi took advantage of a delayed penalty call to Wayne Gretzky and fired in a wrist shot to become the fifth player in franchise history to reach the 50-goal plateau.

Recchi would go on to eclipse the franchise mark in points for a season with 123, four more than Bobby Clarke's previous mark of 119. It still stands.
