Talk about how weak Gretzky all you want, but you all know that Gretzky wouldn't have gotten injured on this play because he would have passed it to the guy that's wide open in front of the net instead of try to go through the entire team.
-
Two players in a row purposely tried to injure orr with knee to knee. It was deliberate.
-
this is how great Orr was..He got up and amassed 139 points and a plus 124 that season.Nobody mentions the refs arm going up signaling a penalty.
-
scumbags on that team...and another bum Stan Makita who would cut everybody with his stick work
-
@artistseye1 Orr's career would have lasted 10 more years if he got the protection that Wayne Gretzky got.
Orr was the only player that was strong in every aspect of the game and despite his enormous talent, his blue collar work ethic was just as good. It a shame that the rules back then allowed scumbags like Dave Schultz
to take down great players like Orr. Fred Cusik and Johnny Pearson's work in the booth supplimented days that will never be seen again in Boston.

Dirty scumbags. They were always running for his knees. It was the only way to stop him. Just a dirty shame. Orr would have won so many cups and owned so many records if they could fix knees like today. He was the best hockey player of all time. He was a rock star.

First: That was a cheap shot and the guy who whiffed earlier was trying to do the same thing.
Two: IT was his right knee which is not the one that forced him to retire. He just got banged up a little on this play.
-
Fuck... Player like that... Got crashed like that... And that's why he's career ended do early... It really sucks.
-
What a pussy. No one could touch Orr clean. Cheap shots like this are the reason why his career ended early

If seeing Mahovlich knee Orr like this pisses you off, watch the youtube video of Terry O'Reilly beating the shit out of him. It'll make you feel better.

you're right -- it worked, if just for a little while...the scotch/irish in me misses watching o'reilly's left hooks nearly as much as watching orr go end to end :)

It took me 2 days to finally watch this one highlander. Son of a bitch.Why is Fred Cusic not in the booth with Johnny? What year did Fred start at TV 38?

They were always taking a run at him - definitely a very painful memory, for Bobby and for all Boston fans.
I believe Fred Cusick took over for Don Earle in 1971. Nobody called a game better than Fred and Johnny!!
