My mom went to school with Bobby’s dad and sister and we lived very close to the Orr family. Growing up in small town Parry Sound everyone knew each other. One day some asks his mom (rural Parry Sound) what she thinks of her son’s hockey success. With her response you will realize why is such a nice guy. “Both of my sons play hockey (Ron played minor hockey in PS). What son are you referring too? I’m proud of both my boys.”

I have no doubt that, if George had pulled out a cell phone, Bobby would have made the call. total class and the greatest player of all time.

I'm from Boston, and I say this not to boast, but Boston has had a LOT of mammoth superstar sports figures: Bill Russell, Larry Bird, John Havlicek, Ted Williams, Roger Clemens, Pedro Martinez, David Ortiz, Ray Bourque, Phil Esposito, Tom Brady, etc., but all of the guys I mentioned have come under criticism, at one point of another. But, I've never, EVER seen or read a single bad word about Orr., which is VERY strange considering how notoriously tough Boston's media & fans can be. To say Orr was (and still is) a God in Boston would be an understatement. But the most amazing thing about Orr is as great a player as he was, he's an even better person. Derek Sanderson said that if he and Bobby would be driving around Boston early before a practice or game, and Bobby would ask him to go visit sick kids at Children's Hospital. No press or fanfare, that's just who Bobby was: a class act. I don't like thinking about it, but the day Bobby passes away, there will be a LOT of ppl calling in sick to work, because the city/suburbs will be in mourning. And I'm not kidding. That's how much Orr is beloved in Boston.

There’s no comparison between Orr and Gretzky in my opinion. Sure Gretzky was a prolific goal scorer. But Orr played the game at both ends, he’s the true GOAT and I can even imagine if he got to play a full career if it wasn’t cut short due to injury. Gordie Howe played until he was 52, Orr retired at 30, imagine if we got to see Orr play another 22 years.

I believe there were numerous reasons why Orr wrote his book but I feel one of the main reasons was in response to Stephen Brunt's book "Searching for Bobby Orr" Great interview btw

Such as great man. When my wife and I started dating I booked a bed and breakfast in Parry Sound. When we checked on, it was an older lady ie)80 plus. Nice house but kind of cluttered. Our room was in the basement which was finished.but had tons and tons of file boxes everywhere. I said to her what’s all this stuff? She said her husband who had passed was the County Judge/Magistrate etc. And by law, she had to keep these files for 40 years. With a chuckle she said if I would have known that I would have divorced him before he passed and then laughed it off. I noticed some pics of Bobby Orr hanging and some had been signed. Knowing Bobby was from there she told me that her husband was a lawyer at the time Bobby was getting noticed and when Boston made him his first contract offer, Mr Orr and Bobby found out the lawyer was playing golf at the local golf course. They ran all over the course to find him so he could read the contract and get some advice on what to do etc. Small world...

Steve Yzerman is always in my discussion of the greatest player to ever live, he may not be the top scorer to ever play the game but his heart and dedication are second to none, an incredibly respected player on and off the ice, thats not to say I dont still love watching old Orr and Howe games

The Eagleson clip was a bad move. But of course, Bobby handled the situation.

The elbow Bobby took from Gordie was because earlier in that game, Bobby's first pro game, Bobby crosschecked Gordie in the head, according to Gordie and film footage. Gordie said, "After he did it the Bruins rallied around him and Bobby told them to relax that he deserved it."

He gave back his salary with the Blackhawks because he didn't think he was worth his contract...

GOAT

From Philadelphia, but can say the Flyers would have lost to the Bruins in 1974 if not for the 1972 creation of the W.H.A. It was a tough six game series and the Bruins did not have McKenzie, Stanfield, Sanderson and Cheevers. The Flyers got a mulligan with the W.H.A. creations as they got Parent back who they traded to Toronto in 1971. Bernie went to the W.H.A. in 72 and left the Philly Blazers and got traded back to the Flyers. Without Bernie, The Flyers would have GOTTEN BLOWN OUT OF THE SERIES.

+Stewart P Except that Bobby Orr was the type of ground breaking player that could play in any era. The one area that has changed pretty drastically since Orr's time is goaltending it is a far more skilled position than it was then. So Bobby might not score at a 1.4 point per game clip (4th in NHL history) as he did in his era and it seems the overall quality of players is better than the players then so perhaps he wouldn't have averaged nearly a PLUS 1 (#1 +/- all time) for each game he played in the NHL (nearly three time better than Gretzky) BUT there is no doubt in my mind that Bobby Orr in his prime would still be a superstar if he were playing in 2015-16. Absolutely no question, there are things Orr did on a regular basis then that players since have copied and are doing today, yet there are things he did then that no one has been able to repeat.

George should have let Bobby speak more.

mahtivaari72 Because no defenseman had ever dominated like Orr, to the point using a lethal defenseman as not only the quarterback-type of player, but with his unmatched speed, opposing teams had to re-think how they would defend an attack where a defenseman was the main concern. That's why to this day, Orr has the biggest +/- differential in a single season (+124, in 1971,), while even during Gretzky's dominance with the Oilers, the best +/- he could ever muster up was +98. In other words, instead of the opposing team putting its main focus on stopping the forwards, Orr showed how a highly-skilled defenseman could dominate the game like never before. Then after Orr you had other HOF Dmen like Larry Robinson, Denis Potvin, Paul Coffey, etc., as other teams realized a defenseman could also be a lethal offensive threat, as well. That's how it changed.

JAY D Just ask yourself a question, would Jeremy Jacobs give up 20% of an investment of $TWO MILLION to a player he did not know and could not play. NO WAY JOSE' This story first was floated by Orr during Eagleson's trial, to prove Eagleson was a crook. THERE WAS NO SUCH OFFER................. Bobby did things to shorten his career. In June 1972 he was operated on and the surgeons told him STAY OFF THE DAMNED SKATES FOR 4 MONTHS, Let it heal up. Six weeks later Bobby was in Montreal trying to see if he could play in the 1972 Superseries. His knee blew up like a balloon, and he had to quit.

Bobby Orr was once asked "So Bobby, how does it feel to be the best hockey player of all time?" Bobby looked at the reporter and said "I wouldn't know, ask Wayne Gretzky." Bobby was a humble man, but also he knew he wasn't the best as some suggest.

Bullshit introduction right off the start. Only TWO names for the greatest player, either Orr or Gretzky? Most hockey players, commentators, coaches, and experts on the game say GORDIE HOWE. Greatest all-round player of all time, and even Wayne and Bobby agree. Bobby Orr--- greatest defensemen of all time, absolutely no doubt about it.

This host totally dismisses Gordie Howe as being in the conversation as all time great. Gordie is simply the best ever & most complete player there ever was. Most all time great say so including Wayne Gretzky

This is a test

Eagleson took advantage of players because they were drafted and played junior without finishing high school.

Hard to imagine number four was broke at the end of his career. That is so wrong on so many levels. There's a place for people like Alan eagleson a special place in hell.
