Off-season
editBob McCammon replaced Keith Allen as general manager in the off-season, and retained his position as head coach.[2] McCammon had received an offer from the Pittsburgh Penguins to become their general manager.[2]
Regular season
editThe youth of the team began to take over the reins from the old guard as Tim Kerr recorded his first 50-goal season. The team finished in third place.
The 1983–84 regular season saw Barber play his final games as he would officially announce his retirement following the next season after being unable to return from reconstructive knee surgery.

editAmong the team records set during the 1983–84 season was the franchise high 350 goals scored on the season.[12] On December 15 against the Washington Capitals, the Flyers scored three shorthanded goals during the game (tied for the team record) and three during the second period.[13][14] On March 22 against the Pittsburgh Penguins, the Flyers scored 13 goals, a franchise high which was tied seven months later.[15] 1984 was the final year of Bobby Clarke's team record twelve consecutive years in the playoffs streak dating back to 1973.[16]
The 1983–84 season was the final NHL seasons for three longtime Flyers — Clarke, Bill Barber, and Rick MacLeish — who hold several career records for the team. Clarke holds the regular season marks for seasons played (15, tied with Claude Giroux), games played (1,144), assists (852), and points (1,210).[17][18][19][20] Clarke also holds the playoff marks for seasons played (13), games played (136), assists (77), and points (119).[21][22][23][24] Barber holds the regular season mark for goals scored (420) and is tied for the playoff mark for goals scored (53) with MacLeish.[25][26]
