"The Flyers are saddened to hear of the passing of Jack McIlhargey. Jack began his NHL career with our organization and contributed to our success in a variety of ways, which included player, assistant coach and current scout. He helped our team to three Conference Championships, including two as a player. Jack will be deeply missed, but his legacy with our team will be felt for years to come. He was a large part of drafting the players on today's team and the ones currently in our system who will make up a new generation of Flyers. Our condolences go out to Jack's wife, Karyne, and his three daughters, Erin, Georgia and Anna."
