Bruins Opening Night Centennial Ceremony

The full in-arena ceremony from Opening Night as the Boston Bruins celebrate their Centennial season.

[@maxriz2000]

Bobby Orr, the greatest hockey player! There aren't too many players that can get the puck from their net, stickhandle all the way to the opponents net and score. What a sight to see!!!

[@twins29]

There never will be another Bobby Orr.

[@AMT1345]

Cale Makar: Are you sure about that

[@happybeingmiserable4668]

Greatest Defenceman ever! But him, Mario and Gretzky all said together that Gordie Howe is the GOAT and they all had no problem being behind him.

[@coreyhill681]

Uhhhhh,Wynne Gretzky, sure Bobby Orr had a greatest career but at the same time Wynne Gretzky was called the Great One for a reason, nice try, I will admit Orr was complete Hall of Famer and deserves to be recognized but you are pushing it

[@coreyhill681]

​@AMT1365 just to remind you that Bobby Orr is an Hall of Famer and has a better Career than Makar, really

[@johnm8096]

What a great ceremony seeing these former Bruins legends. Orr and Esposito, wow!!

[@wayneleong4906]

Most humble Superstar in sports you’ll ever see…..goat!

[@jason-hy8ci]

💯% He is SO HUMBLE..... after completely EMBARRASSING the other team by holding the Puck till HE decided to score he wouldn't Dance, or Jump around he would put his stick on his knees with his head down and skate to the neutral zone for the faceoff. SMH..... THE GREATEST.

[@rtblues]

I'm an old time Bllackhawks fan, but man that was awesome! Well done Boston! What memories!

[@michaelwhalen4337]

Bobby Orr #4 !!!!

[@andrewgoodman4367]

The thunderous roar for Bobby. It gets me EVERY time!

[@TAC617]

Bobby has been a close friend to me and my Neighbor "Quinby" Not only is he 1 of the coolest down to earth people I've ever met but he's really lived life to the fullest.

[@stephendacey8761]

Wow..Saying you are friends w/ Bobby Orr is already impressive in itself. I saw Bobby as a kid, and will never forget when he scored a goal vs. Vancouver, and everybody was snapping pictures all at once. The greatest player ever - #4 Bobby Orr!!!!! Bobby looks great, today.

[@justdynee]

Probably my all time favorite athlete, maybe Roberto Duran or Julius Erving. Sure wish he hadn't pulled that Trump fiasco.

[@lindyfrank5342]

he's given so much back to hockey..

[@Tom-pw2ni]

What a great night at the Garden!!

[@broadstreetbullies849]

Im so happy Tim Thomas made it!!!!

[@StuartMcNair-kk9nb]

​@johnbrowne2170 wrong bruins out scored Vancouvet 24 to 8 in that series or by a 3 to 1 ratio. Yes Thomas was a big reason they won but he was far from the only reason. Bruins also had the best 4rth line in the NHL.

[@johnbrowne2170]

@@StuartMcNair-kk9nb No, he's easily the main and obvious reason why the Bruins won. No other player had as much influence in the playoffs as Thomas. That's why he won the playoff MVP award. People who know hockey saw what I saw.

[@JoexWalsh]

​@@StuartMcNair-kk9nbIt's almost like he had a massive impact on that ratio... Almost as if he was a huge reason why the goals against were so low.

[@christopherbenson9942]

Was so lucky to have been there, up close...seeing all these Legends I grew up idolizing...what a night!

[@BruinsPastaSauce]

love seeing the 2011 players. i will never forget watching that year. the most badass 4th line this game has seen.

[@SSNESS]

Mark Recchi should’ve been there, Horton & Julien too

[@jason-hy8ci]

​@@SSNESSI'm sure they invited more players, but they probably couldn't make it. It was good seeing "Espo" there he doesn't always make these events.

As a lifetime Canadiens fan,I really hated these guys,but really respected them,What great players!What a great time for the NHL!Great video!

[@roberthoyt7921]

Let Bruins Season 100 begin!

[@edwardmcmanus7496]

Lifelong NY Rangers fan here. #4 Bobby Orr will always be in my opinion the greatest of the greats.

[@paulmiskinis3988]

What an awesome lineup of great Boston Bruins players. Some of my favorites were there! Bobby Orr,Derek Sanderson, Cam Neely,Terry O Reilly. Derek Sanderson was my favorite. The Turk.

[@CorbuloCDN1]

3:23 My Bruins Jersey! It was great to see him!

[@briangraham1024]

Nothing's changed in the NHL. There's Bobby Orr and then there's the rest. Go Habs Go!!! 😊

[@user-xe4me8pv3b]

Happy 100th Birthday Boston Bruins & many more this season 🎉🎉🎉!!!

[@lindyfrank5342]

I had them winning the Cup against the Oilers...and we all know what happened...it's called running out of gas

[@Tom-pw2ni]

always a great night night when 4 is in the house

[@twins29]

Absolutely right. No one can be compared to him.

[@wayneleong4906]

Absolutely the greatest hockey player in my mind! 11:07

[@andrewgoodman4367]

No comarables on or off the ice

[@BillyJoeMcallister]

One of the very best and most recognized organizations in all of pro sports. Plenty of fans here in Vancouver that know their history well.

[@jspideythomas]

As I recall, Mr. Orr was an inspiration to another Boston sports legend a decade later for the Celtics, #33...

[@sorryfortheinconvenience]

Tim Thomas was a man on a mission. It's great to see him get the recognition from the fans. Go B's!!!

[@SSNESS]

Always letting in one early goal, then nothing else for the rest of the game

[@scottirwin3426]

[@jump4j]

lucky all you Bruin fans who live in Boston I have to cheer from here in Toronto.

[@denzelclossartpoetryvibes5915]

this is beautiful and tremendous as ever. I love this very much.

[@karlschneider9479]

My dad grew watching the Kraut Line. My grandparents were German immigrants so he latched onto them. My dad and his friends would skate and play hockey on the Charles River and Boby Bauer would stop by and skate with him and his friends just ragging the puck and having fun.

[@lkgrave4959]

I want Jeremy Swayman to bring the Cup back to Alaska. Him doing it in a Bruins uniform would be an added bonus.

[@gillesgibeault9135]

Exactly , get rid of Ullmark and give the net to SWAYMAN!!!

[@canadiantraveller281]

Bobby Orr just doesn't age does he ? Freakin walking legend.

[@user-fo8xc2dn7s]

Damn. Bobby Orr looks like he could lace up the skates and do it all again! Great video and a great show. Thanks.

[@bbnflpn]

This was a pleasure and privilege to witness. Even as a Canucks team fan where we just had to win one more game that year....... still having the chance to shake the hand of Willie and Bobby when I did is a magic experience never to be forgotten.

[@fklifter1]

Gretzky may have been the greatest offensive player but Orr was the greatest all round player. He not only led the league in scoring but his plus/minus of plus 124 in a season is still a record to this day

[@DigbyOdel-et3xx]

I'm a Habs fan so as such I don't cheer for the Bruins, but I long have said that Montreals best rivals are the Boston Bruins. The many great playoff series battles between these two is the magic. So congrats Boston on 100 years. Oh yeah there is one Bruin I like very much and its ' Number Four, Bobby Orr'.😎👍

[@molsonmuscle613]

Wheres cashman? Either way i loved the tribute!

[@williamnettnin957]

I watched it cause I’m a Hawks fan but I have to admit that was so cool the way they did this

[@flames24lightning]

Nice to see Phil Esposito there. The man was extremely bitter at the Bruins for years after he got traded and he now bleeds Tampa Bay Lightning blue and white (for very good reason). Glad he was able to put all that aside for one night.

[@janbrunner354]

Cam Neely is the reason, because everything is going into way better atmosphere. Think of Lucic back to us. Cam is a good one and I love him more and more

[@rodmaher194]

Gerry Cheevers and Tim Thomas should have #30 retired. Glad they were there for this!

[@Ibelikemj]

Brimsek and Thompson should too….we should wait until Swayman is a HOF goalie lol

[@billmacdonald2139]

Cheevers alone....thomas not in hof

[@marcwilliams8766]

That was pretty cool 😎

[@marccharbonneau5838]

[@Steve-xf4uv]

Great to see John Bucyk still able to get to the games - 60 years with the same team, can anybody beat that ??

[@Axeom]

that was awesome to watch. Will let some of my issues with the new logo and jerseys go. Now when do #33 and #37 go up?

[@stevenaudet]

I want that Milt Schmidt jersey so bad!

[@garyblanchard1084]

Milt and others were there in spirit

[@jason-hy8ci]

Thanks for posting. This might be one of the only things I'll watch when it comes to hockey anymore. Things just aren't the same. P.S. I saw a guy sitting down for this ceremony behind BOBBY Fn' ORR THE GREATEST HOCKEY PLAYER EVER..... he was wearing a Pastyrnak sweater. 🙄

[@MicoV94]

Boston Bruins, celebrate 100 years in franchise history

[@boomataco]

Life is good when the bruins play

[@DigbyOdel-et3xx]

One thing you all should have brought Don Cherry there too as he is a Boston Bruins iconic coach.

[@gregferrone8724]

Yes Bobby or how'd you guys pull that one off the greatest

[@paulr5694]

The Great Orr. Boston's most beloved sports superstar. And it's not even close.

[@Spontaneous0rder]

Hopefully the current Bruins roster will be inspired to not choke in the playoffs this year and bring the Cup back to Boston where it belongs. Orr, Espo, Raymond et al will appreciate the effort for sure. Ya know, have some pride in your organization. Good year to start doing that.

[@gillesgibeault9135]

The only way this happens is get rid of the 2 main playoffs' culprits : Montgomery & Ullmark (I despise these 2).

[@barrydimmock5771]

Orr was the best, no questions, no excuses no bs needed, period

[@gregferrone8724]

It's great to see Willie o'ree he should be an assistant coach when hockey was great hitting

[@justdynee]

You can thank Aaron Rome for that.

[@briangraham1024]

They should have had Schneider starting in nets for game six instead of going again with Luongo. If so they probably would have won the Cup in Boston. But no, they went with their multi-million dollar starter even though that night he leaked like a seive. Blame Vigneault and/or Mike Gillis for that tragic brain-cramp. After game six I knew it was over and didn't even bother to watch game seven. However, I did watch the all those total yahoo-goofs as they wrecked Vancouver ... no class punks!
