The 1984–85 Philadelphia Flyers season was the Philadelphia Flyers' 18th season in the National Hockey League (NHL). The Flyers reached the Stanley Cup Finals but lost in five games to the Edmonton Oilers.
Off-season
Bobby Clarke's first move as general manager was hiring Mike Keenan as head coach.[2] Second-year player Dave Poulin was named team captain.[3]
Regular season
On October 18 they tied a franchise record for most goals in one game, after a 13–2 rout of the Vancouver Canucks at the Spectrum. They recorded another 10-plus goal contest on March 10 against Pittsburgh, crushing the Penguins 11–4. In addition, the team snapped the Edmonton Oilers' then NHL record 12–0–3 unbeaten streak to start the year with a 7–5 win on November 11. Four days later, they paid tribute to the recently retired Bobby Clarke on Bobby Clarke Night with a 6–1 win over the Hartford Whalers.
Although the club got off to a hot 16–4–4 start, they faltered in December, losing four straight games and five of six prior to Christmas. With the team's slate of games thin throughout January, the Washington Capitals surged to the top of the Patrick Division although the Flyers kept winning consistently.
After trailing the division-leading Capitals by 11 points in early February, the Flyers clinched the division title on March 28 and finished 12 points ahead of Washington, reeling off an incredible 24–4–0 record after February 9. The game that kicked off the stretch, on February 9 at the Capital Centre, saw Tim Kerr score four goals but Brian Propp won it, 5-4, with two seconds remaining in regulation. The club set a franchise record with 11 straight wins from March 5–24.
One season before the Presidents' Trophy was created to reward the NHL club with the most points, the Flyers finished the season with 113, four ahead of eventual Cup champion Edmonton. They also recorded their second-highest single-season goal total (tied with 1975–76, and two fewer than the previous season) and allowed the third-fewest goals behind Washington and Buffalo.
Twice during the season two players recorded hat tricks in the same game. Propp and Ilkka Sinisalo turned the trick in the Vancouver rout, while Poulin and Kerr teamed up for six goals in a wild 9–6 win over Washington on March 7.
Goaltender Pelle Lindbergh, who led the league with 40 wins, won the Vezina Trophy.

Records
Among the team records set during the 1984–85 regular season was tying the team record for most goals in a game (13) on October 18 against the Vancouver Canucks, a mark which was set only seven months earlier.[18] On October 25, Tim Kerr scored the first of what would be three 4-goal games during the regular season (January 17 and February 9 being the others), tying the team record, and also set the team marks for most goals in a period (3) and the fastest three goals by one player (two minutes and twenty-seven seconds) during the game.[19][20][21] On January 13, Brian Propp tied a team record when he scored two shorthanded goals while the three total during the game also tied a team record.[22][23] Goaltender Pelle Lindbergh tied the team record for most consecutive wins (9) from March 9 to March 24.[24] Propp’s seven shorthanded goals on the season is tied for the team record and Kerr’s five hat tricks on the season is a team record.[25][26] The team set records for most wins (53, tied the following season) and fewest road ties (3, subsequently tied twice).[27]
With their victory in game one of their division semifinal playoff series against the New York Rangers, the Flyers ended a franchise record six game playoff home losing streak that stretched from April 26, 1981 to April 7, 1984.[28] In the series deciding 6–5 victory against the Rangers on April 13, Tim Kerr set a number of NHL and team records during the second period, scoring four goals (tied for the NHL record) in a span of an NHL playoff record eight minutes and sixteen seconds, an NHL record three of which were on the powerplay.[29][30][31] His four points during the period and his three powerplay goals during the game is also tied for the NHL record, while the three minutes and twenty-four seconds it took him to score three goals is a team record.[32][33][34] Peter Zezel’s three assists during the period is tied for the team record (replicated by Kerr on April 21 against the New York Islanders) and four points during the game is tied for the team rookie record.[35][30] Records tied by the team as a whole include most goals (5) and powerplay goals (3) during the period, while the four powerplay goals during the game is tied for the team record.[36][37][38]
Lindbergh won a team record six consecutive playoff wins from April 10 through April 23, tying Bernie Parent’s 1974 mark.[39] Doug Crossman’s three powerplay goals during the playoffs is tied for the team record among defensemen.[40]
