GAALeader=Bernie Parent (2.22)The 1977–78 Philadelphia Flyers season was the Philadelphia Flyers eleventh season in the National Hockey League (NHL).

The Flyers lost their hold on the Patrick Division in 1977–78 and settled for second place. Tom Bladon's 8 points (4 goals and 4 assists) in a game against the Cleveland Barons on December 11 set an NHL record for a defenseman. After sweeping the Colorado Rockies in 2 games in the preliminary round, the Flyers moved on to beat Buffalo in five games. They faced Boston in the semifinals for the second consecutive season, and lost again, this time in five games. Following the season, the Flyers were stunned when head coach Fred Shero left to take the general manager and head coaching jobs with the Rangers. As compensation for "The Fog", the Flyers received the Rangers' first-round draft pick which (along with their own first-round selection) the club used to select defenseman Behn Wilson and center Ken Linseman sixth and seventh overall respectively at the 1978 NHL Entry Draft in Montreal the following June.
