Borque may well have been the best defensement to ever play the game.........and Lemieux made him look like he took up the wrong sport.

Scotty bowman said the two greatest and supremely talented players ever were bobby orr and mario lemieux,hard to argue.

I meant Mario's most famous goal

i'll just mention the final game with the Russians in 1972 was so political that especially in Canada and the soviet union schools and workplaces were literally being closed for the day. in schools both in the soviet union and Canada teachers were marching kids into the gym assemblies and making them watch the game rather than go to school. as many as 250 million people around the world saw the goal including 50 million in Russia alone and about 80% of the Canadian population watched the game.

the most famous goal of all is when paul Henderson scored on the Russian goalie tetriak in game 8 of the series. Canada had 3 wins and so did the Russians with one tie. Canada had been losing but had won the previous 2 games however one was tied so as a result if the game had ended in a tie the Russians would win since they had one extra goal overall, but Henderson scored and won the series with 34 seconds left.

this game was not just for fun, it was political and in the height of the cold war.

Ray Bourque wasn't even the best defenseman in Bruins history, because the best defenseman and arguable best player in hockey history played for the Bruins...
