On this date: Bobby Orr's goal wins a Stanley Cup
Today marks the 47th anniversary of Bobby Orr’s famous fly-through-the-air overtime goal that clinched the Stanley Cup for the Boston Bruins against the St. Louis Blues.
That capped a season in which Orr won the Norris Trophy (top defenseman), Art Ross Trophy (top scorer), Hart Trophy (MVP) and Conn Smythe Trophy (Playoffs MVP) – the only player to win all of those in the same season.
Lets use this moment to look back at Orr's remarkable NHL career.
• Orr won the Norris Trophy as the NHL’s top defenseman eight times (eight in a row!), the most of any NHL player. Only two active players have won the award twice –- Duncan Keith of the Blackhawks and Erik Karlsson of the Senators.
