It took 49 years, but the Boston Bruins and St. Louis Blues will finally have their Stanley Cup Final rematch beginning Monday night at TD Garden.
Of course, the iconic shot of Bobby Orr’s flying goal from the Game 4 clincher in 1970 resonates in Bruins lore. Bostonians need only to go to any local bar — or look at Orr’s statue outside TD Garden –to re-live those good memories.
Bruce Cassidy remembers that moment fondly growing up as a kid in Ottawa. The third-year Bruins coach first saw the image as a paperboy in the Canadian capital city, delivering the Ottawa Citizen.
