Looking to put the previous year's disappointment behind them, the Flyers began the season 4–0–1. However, a quick 1–6–3 downturn caused the first casualties – as Trent Klatt was dealt to Vancouver and Shjon Podein was shipped to Colorado for Keith Jones. Jones scored a goal in his first game in orange and black, a 6–1 rout of New Jersey, keying a 6–1–0 run.
Turmoil continued, as, after a 5–4 overtime loss to the Devils on December 10 saw the Flyers blow a 4–1 lead, the decision was made to end the Chris Gratton experiment. He was dealt back to Tampa Bay along with Mike Sillinger for Mikael Renberg and Daymond Langkow, and the move paid immediate dividends. Philly topped Toronto, 3–0, spurring a 15-game unbeaten streak (10–0–5) during which the club matched a record by shutting out their opponents in four consecutive games (Islanders, Carolina, Nashville, Washington).
Another run, this time a 6–0–2 streak from January 18 to February 6, tied the Flyers atop the NHL standings with the Dallas Stars. That momentum did not last long, as the club went 1–4–1 after the All-Star break, including an inexplicable 4–3 loss in Los Angeles where the Kings scored three goals in the final minutes, including a 60-foot game-winner by Jozef Stumpel just before the final buzzer.
Following a win over Pittsburgh, the team suffered through a then franchise-worst 12 games without a victory (0–8–4), broken up only by a rally from two goals down to Detroit on March 21. Eric Lindros, who was having an MVP-type season with 40 goals and 53 assists in 71 games, was felled and lost for the season by a collapsed lung sustained during a 2–1 win against the expansion Nashville Predators on April 1. It is said that if roommate Keith Jones had not intervened at the last minute, Lindros might have died on the plane ride back to Philadelphia.[2]
The Flyers managed to lock up the five-seed on the final day of the season with a win over Boston.
John LeClair continued his goal-scoring streak with 43 on the year, matching Tim Kerr's team record of four straight seasons with 40 or more goals. He was one of only a handful of players to make it through the entire season, as general manager Bob Clarke made 12 trades involving NHL players throughout the regular season,[3] including re-acquiring former Flyer Mark Recchi from the Montreal Canadiens at the trade deadline.

Although Vanbiesbrouck allowed nine goals to Curtis Joseph's eleven allowed, the Flyers lost their first round series with Toronto in six games. Flyers chairman Ed Snider and head coach Roger Neilson were fined $50,000 and $25,000, respectively, for criticizing the officiating in game six.[6]
Among the team records set during the 1998–99 season was Eric Lindros tying the team record for most points during a single period (4) on November 14.[25] Lindros replicated this feat two weeks later on November 29, also tying the team record for most assists in a period (4), while John LeClair tied team records for goals scored in a regular season game (4) and period (3).[25][26][27][28] From January 7 to January 13, the Flyers tied a team record with four straight shutouts.[29] January 7 was also the first of 18 consecutive games until February 18 that Lindros recorded at least one point, tying Bobby Clarke’s team record set during the 1974–75 season.[30] The season finale on April 18 was the 484th and final game of Rod Brind'Amour’s franchise record consecutive games streak.[31] The Flyers nine goals allowed is the team record for the fewest allowed during a single playoff season.[32]
1998–99 was the final NHL season for longtime Flyers goaltender Ron Hextall, who holds several career records for the team. Serving in a backup role to starter John Vanbiesbrouck, Hextall was able to surpass Bernie Parent for games played by a goaltender (489) and wins (240) during the season.[33][34] He also holds the team playoff career goalie marks for games played (84), wins (45), and minutes played (4,928).[35][36][37] Hextall holds the NHL career records for most penalty minutes by a goaltender in the regular season (569) and playoffs (115), and is one of only two goalies to score a goal during a Stanley Cup playoffs game.[38][39][40]
The Flyers were involved in the following transactions from June 17, 1998, the day after the deciding game of the 1998 Stanley Cup Finals, through June 19, 1999, the day of the deciding game of the 1999 Stanley Cup Finals.[42]
