The Philadelphia Flyers Watson jersey patch is a commemorative patch that honors former Flyers defenseman Joe Watson, who played for the team from 1967 to 1978. Watson was a hard-nosed defenseman who was known for his gritty play and leadership on the ice.
During his time with the Flyers, Watson was a key member of the team that won back-to-back Stanley Cups in 1974 and 1975. He also served as the team's captain during the 1973-1974 season.
In honor of Watson's contributions to the team, the Flyers wore a patch featuring his name and number (14) on their jerseys during the 2016-2017 season. The patch has since become a collector's item among Flyers fans and NHL memorabilia collectors.
