I was born in 1962 so I do remember Bobby Orr playing. You knew something good was going to happen (he once said that the best defense that you can come up with is that they have to get the puck from you and when he had the puck, forget it), when he would have the puck, go behind the net of Gerry Cheevers and pause between 5-10 seconds and look at where all the players were on the ice and then go. If he crossed the blueline of the opposing team, most likely he would either score or assist. A lot of people don’t know this, but the Bruins signed him when he was only 12 YEARS OLD !!! Its just that he had to wait until he was 18 to play at the top level. It was great to see the Bruins win the cup, but for the past 5 years, I have been living just north of Phoenix, Arizona and the Coyotes are still in. What is ironic was the year I moved out here, the Cardinals made it to the Superbowl. Everything is fine with me Thank You. Its just too bad that it is my prediction that the RED SOX are going to be in for a very long and trouble some season.

That is truly awesome,…I was born in 75′, so I obviously missed it, but it never gets old to hear how thrilling that moment was from Bruins fans who watched it happen.

Hope you were able to enjoy the Bruins great run last year. They may not have won as many Cups as they deserve or could have, but it seems the taste of the Cup is just that much sweeter for Bruins fans.

Hope all is well with you!

@ jefe77. I was in Wakefield, Massachusetts at my Aunt and Uncle’s house when it happened. I was only 8 years old but I remember that moment like it was yesterday. Telling me that Wayne Gretzky was better than Robert Gordon “Bobby” Orr will result in a serious argument with me. Bobby Orr won 3 scoring titles…………AS A DEFENSEMAN ????? That’s not a Defensemen’s job which made Bobby that transcending hockey player / athlete

Bobby Orr’s OT Cup winning goal on Mothers Day in 1970 should not only be on this list, but top 5.

Shame

@ me. You have an excellent point there about why its called the World Series when no other country plays it (now for the exception of Latin Americans : Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Mexico, etc). My only estimation is that baseball was invented in the United States, so therefore they claim stake to it. Its like Hockey and the Stanley Cup. The teams are from either U.S. or Canada, but if you put a team together of the best Russians or Swedes, Finns, Czechs, I bet they could whip any NHL team from here. My opinion is that its a matter of ethnics. Real good question from you, Kudos.

May 10, 1970 : Boston Bruins vs. The St. Louis Blues. The Finals of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Bruins on the verge of sweeping The Blues and ahead 3 games to 0. Game 4 goes into sudden death overtime. Within a minute into the sudden death period, Derek Sanderson of the Bruins has the puck and right along with him is the greatest Hockey Player ever, # 4 Bobby Orr. Sanderson heads toward the back of The Blues net, passes the puck to Bobby Orr and scores. I am sure that you have all seen the famous photo of him flying through the air vertically as he was tripped up by a St. Louis player. The rest is history.

No. 7 – shot heard around the world in a city vs city match (in a sport played by a handful of countries).

by the way, why is a world series called a world series when no other country participates in it.
