Territorial tensions set aflame
The Flyers and the Capitals met for the first time in 1974, but it was ten years before they had their first playoff showdown. When the Capitals swept the series in three games and bruised the egos of the Flyers, the rivalry flared. In 1988 the two teams met again in the playoffs, the Flyers dominating in the first four games before falling to the Flyers in Game 7. The Flyers came roaring back the following year, with Ron Hextall being the first keeper to score a goal in a playoff game. Tensions spilled over in 1991, when a game spiraled into fight after fight, and both teams were fined. The two teams wouldn't meet in the playoffs again for nearly twenty years, but soon all that simmering passion exploded into a return to full-fledge rivalry.
