My boyhood idol. Revolutionized the game from that position, although he could have played anywhere and been the best. A real class act even to this day. Too bad medicine wasn't as advanced as it is now or he would have played a lot longer. Remember when Boston was a Hockey town. The B's owned Boston. I'll bet you Bobby Orr still has never payed for a meal or a beer in Boston to this day. Hockey was on national TV every Sunday. I played street hockey all summer long. I remember being at the Garden at a game with the Black Hawks, Mikita, Hull, ect.. and it was his 22nd birthday. He won the game in the last seconds on an ice length rush.I still have the record "Goal Bruins" somewhere after they won the cup. Wow time flies. Sorry for the long winded response but really brings back some great memories. Life is too short. P.

I keep watching that link......just amazing the way he played...unmatched intensity and skill! You can argue alot of other sports "who" was the best.....in my opinion there is no equal to Bobby Orr!

Think I will watch it again right now!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
