Would take a team of Orr’s over a team of Gretzky’s any day. Gretzky was Great but the one thing he was not was a 2 way player.

i was 10,there with my dad,the first time i ever saw him cry,may be one of the best nights of my life,we blew the roof of the joint!! it was amazing,ive got goose bumps just remembering........

Great video. I still think Bobby Orr is the greatest athlete ever, not just hockey player. Probably the nicest and most humble athlete/ celebrity ever.

Sends a tingle down the spine

Two equal goaltenders. Five Orr versus five Gretzky. As A Bruins fan I know what side I’m on. Drop the Puck!

Thank you for posting!! Just wondering if you have any bruins games on tape or dvd?? I'm always looking, trying to find games to trade for, if you do let me know.

Bobby got robbed of probably 6 more years because of all the knee surgeries. To me he's the greatest player ever. I grew up in Cambridge, Ma during the orr years and it was just amazing to watch him on WSBK 38. Every game you never knew what he would do!

A Plus 124 , 37Goals 102 Assists In 1971 That's Insane Best Ever 7:55

Most Exciting Player I Ever Seen In My 67 Years😢 In Any Sport.G.O.A.T.

When You Change The Way Your Game is Played Your Special G.O.A.T.

Bobby Orr was a rock star. He is the Michael Jordan of hockey. He completely changed how the game was played. He deserved every bit of this applause. Not only the greatest hockey player but the greatest and most humble of human beings. I get Gretzy was great too, he's the LeBron to Bobby's GOAT. Such a shame he was all done at 28 years old. Imagine a prime Bobby Orr? I feel blessed to have watched every game he played. This never gets old. Thanks for posting.

The look on Peggy Orr's face I will never forget.

the greatest that ever was and ever will be

Orr playing today with the 3 on3 overtime scenario would be a sin.

God forgot to give Tom Fitzgerald a personality....worst emcee ever!!!

The absolute worst emcee of all time...looks like he should be waked...

Die hard Blackhawk fan,saw Mikita ,Hull,Esposito, Orr was the greatest!!!!

Not until later did i realize how lucky i was that we (while poor in the town of Lewiston Maine.) I was brought up by my mom ..As a single parent she gave every ounce of her being to us..We did have all to much,but we had cable lol..I was able to watch the Bruins during this time..I was 11 years old...I loved the Bruins, not realizing that Bobby would have shortened career do to bad knees...But wow!! He was the best!! Love you and this team forever..

When he played his last season for the Blackhawks, his knees wer so bad that his teammates had to carry him up the flight of stairs that led from the locker room to the rink. Guts and skill!

Not a dry eye!

What a clas, class guy, both on and off the ice.

What a class act Bobby is. Both on and off the ice

Brings tears to my eyes every time I watch this. This applause is genuine, direct from the hearts of those that saw him play, wearing the Black and Gold. We love you Bobby!

All that was missing were The Hanson's

When The Flyers brought in Kate Smith to sing God Bless America at Game 6 of the 1974 Stanley Cup Finals against The Bruins, the first one to greet her after she finished was Bobby Orr. Pure class.

I watched this growing up in my youth; if Bobby hadn’t spoke they would’ve continued cheering and applauding! Orr was the greatest!!!

Bobby was soo humble and modest and very uncomfortable praising himself. Well, Bobby doesn't need to praise him, because millions of hockey fans will gladly do that for him.

ORR=GOAT

In my mind...the greatest athlete in the history of sports. What other athlete do you know of that was discovered at age 12?

Bobby Orr’s final full season was 1974-75 when he won his second scoring title and ended when he had just turned 27. Most players are just entering their prime at that point. He played 36 more games over the next 4 seasons where he scored 45 points.

Without a doubt the best player ever. Imagine if he had the new surgical procedures that we have now.

Bobby was just mesmerizing... Anytime he was on the ice, you never took your eyes off the game. Yes, he is the greatest! And this was the greatest retirement ceremony evaaah!!!

orr paid for a full page add in the boston globe supporting donuld frumpf FOR PRESIDENT ... orr can go fuk himself .

HE IS AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE GREATEST HOCKEY PLAYER REASON HIS HEART BUT ALSO HIS ABILITY TO PLAY ALL POSITIONS AND WELL HIS SKATING ABILITY THAT WAS SO FAR ABOVE THAT ERA

When Bobby Orr retired, hockey was over for me as a fan. The game was still great as he'd helped to advance it to become the game it is today, but no one kept my interest like Orr. He was the "Babe Ruth" of hockey as he changed the game completely just as The Babe had done for baseball.

Never would've guessed a Soviet team as the visitors for this night. So bizarre!

That, on my back, take my stick and just flick the puck to Bucyk behind my neck to score was absolutely ridiculous.

What are you smoking?

During the national anthem at the Boston Garden, Bird focused on the rafters. While many believed he was staring up into the heavens, he was fixated on one hanging banner, and it wasn’t a Celtics one. It was number 4 Bobby Orr!!!!

My dads favourite player he always use to say to me as a kid “NO ONE IS BETTER THEN # 4 bobby orr lol

Retired at 28. What if Bobby played til 40. Bobby the ultimate hold my beer player of all time.

He should’ve just gotten knee replacement surgery. It was first successful in 1968.

This is ausaume

ed king sucks!

Bobby Hull said Orr was the best player on the ice for the '76 Series. And with one bad leg.

Bobby Bobby Bobby 4 ever

You are the absolute best 💝

perfect music for this video it brought tears to my eyes miss you Mr. Orr your the greatest

I watched him when he started playing in 66 and he is without doubt the greatest hockey player ever I was in the hospital for a serious operation my cousin came to visit and really cheered me up he bought a copy of Bobby's book with his autograph something I have been after since I was a kid a lot of thanks too my cousin Tom F
