Gritty Mascot Creation

Prior to Gritty's debut, the Flyers were only one of two NHL teams without an official mascot, the other being the New York Rangers. The team previously had a mascot named Slapshot, but it only lasted one season, in 1976. The "Slapshot" name now belongs to the mascot of the Flyers' division rival, the Washington Capitals.

The impetus for Gritty's creation was when the Flyers' marketing department attended the mascot events at the 2016 NHL All-Star Game in Nashville, Tennessee, and realized that they were missing out on all the marketing and community outreach programs that the league's mascots were generating for their respective teams. The Flyers then commissioned Brian Allen of Flyland Designs in Bellefonte, Pennsylvania, to design Gritty in August 2018. David Raymond, who portrayed the Phillie Phanatic, consulted on Gritty's creation. The Flyers organization wanted Gritty to have a rather intimidating appearance, as "someone you'd high-five but not hug" according to Allen.
