GAME 4 FROM 1970 NOW AVAILABLE ....
1970 Stanley Cup Finals Game 4 Excellent sound clarity. This is the complete broadcast of the historic final game of the series between the St. Louis Blues and the Boston Bruins at Boston Garden. The great Bobby Orr decided the game and the series with a dramatic overtime goal, considered by many to be the greatest single moment in league history. The two tapes include between-period interviews, original commercials and post-game wrap-up. Red Berenson, Johnny Bucyk, Gerry Cheevers, Phil Esposito, Glenn Hall, Barclay Plager and Derek Sanderson also are among the featured players. Bob Cole handles the CBC play-by-play duties. Get a piece of NHL history before it disappears!
Here is the story of Robert Gordon Orr. Without a doubt, he was the greatest hockey player to ever lace them up. He was, and still is an outstanding person off the ice. As a role model he stands proudly and shows in his own quiet ways what one should look for in both hockey and life. Bobby Orr played hockey the way it was meant to be played and for a living. That is like saying Picasso drew pictures for a living. His was a style of hockey never before or since seen in Boston, or anywhere else for that matter. Bobby Orr played the game with the grace of a Bolshoi balleteer. He was Nureyev on skates. When he stepped on the ice, the Boston Garden was transformed into Swan Lake. I hope you enjoy this tribute to #4 and the memories we all so much enjoyed. After you TAKE THIS JOURNEY, I hope you understand what Bobby Orr stood for and still represents TO this glorious day.

OSHAWA DAYS
You are looking at probably the single most valuable sporting jersey that has come along in a long long time. What you see here is an authentic 1964-65 game worn Bobby Orr jersey, when he played for the Oshawa Generals. Bobby wore #2 throughout his General career. Some interesting facts about this jersey...The Generals changed to black and gold colors in 1965-66 (the year Bobby was captain of the Generals) The "C" was put on this jersey at the end of the 1964-65 season in case the new sweaters didn't arrive on time for the start of the season. As you can see in the pictures, the "C" is in perfect shape compared to the cresting and back number. The jersey itself is 43 years old and is still in very good shape, even for been worn throughout the entire hockey season. There are some minor rips and the front cresting and number on the back have worn marks, but that's to be expected. This jersey is stunning though, still with the tie strings on the front collar...and the history behind it makes it even more special. Words cannot describe this how unbelievable this piece of history actually is.

Sometimes when the lights grow dim I go back to that time

And I remember you
It was back in 71 The radio played “She’s come undun”
And I remember you
(Chorus)
And I remember Bobby Orr Everybody say “He shoots he scores”
And I remember you
The Man in the moon and the newlywed game
The more things change the more they stay the same
And I remember you
There was war and there was peace
Some of us still had grease in our hair in our hair
(Chorus)
How I wish I was there
To see you dance to touch your hair
And how about that miniskirt
Beads and braids and a tie dyed shirt

Led by boy wonder Bobby Orr, the first 100-point defenseman in NHL history, the Big, Bad Bruins won their first Stanley Cup in 29 years in a series that wasn't close. Boston won the first two games in St. Louis, 6-1 and 6-2, and claimed Game 3 in Boston, 4-1. St. Louis, which had made the Finals the previous two seasons but hadn't won a game, desperately wanted to avoid another blanking, and extended the Bruins into overtime in Game 4. But on Mother's Day, Orr scored the mother of all goals when he took a pass from Derek Sanderson and tallied 40 seconds into OT, clinching a 4-3 win and setting off a wild Garden celebration. Orr's goal was his first of the series, and him being sent flying on the play by St. Louis defenseman Noel Picard is one of the sport's most enduring images.

THE STORY BEHIND HOCKEY'S MOST FAMOUS PHOTO
The one-of-a-kind Bruins' legend takes time out of a hectic schedule every year to have dinner and meet with the 100 finalists -- all age 17 and under -- who write the top essays on what it takes to be a Good Sport.
 |
| Atkinson, N.H., native Ray Lussier was in the right place at the right time, much like Bobby Orr, when he snapped this photo in May, 1970, recognized as the most famous photograph in New England sports history. |
The story that many people don't know centers on that most famous hockey photo of all-time. It's the most famous New England sports photo ever, snapped by a veteran photographer from the Boston area.
Thanks to the late Ray Lussier, who lived in Atkinson, N.H., Orr's magical split-second flying-through-the-air photo is a moment forever frozen in time. And he always enjoyed telling the story of how he took it.
Boston Garden, Game 4, the Stanley Cup finals, against St. Louis on a 93-degree spring Sunday afternoon: Johnny Bucyk's goal had tied the game at 3-3, forcing overtime and a chance for the Bruins to win their first Cup in 29 years before the home crowd.
Photographers lucky enough to be given stools were assigned to front row cubby-holes cut in the protective glass along the boards. They were located in the four corners of the rink. Hunched over, all trying to peek through their lenses without getting hit by a puck.
Lussier had been shooting action for the old Boston Record-American from a corner in the East end. But when the Zamboni rolled out after the third period to make new ice for sudden-death overtime, Lussier figured the Bruins would be going for broke to win it at home, meaning the action would take place in the West end of the rink if they scored.
So Ray went searching for a better place. Sure enough, he found an empty stool and ''shooting hole'' in the opposite end which was momentarily vacated. A competing Boston newspaper photographer, who had the spot, jaunted off during the intermission to a nearby beer stand underneath the seating area.
Oh! Was it ever steamy in the old Garden that day. Take it from someone who wore a suit and tie for the sauna that day. Officially the crowd was 13,909, but add a couple thousand more counting those who snuck in through fire escapes, or duked $20 bills to ticket takers willing to turn their heads for a moment.
''I figured I'd stay there until the guy came back,'' Lussier recalled years later of the missing thirsty photographer.
He did, 40 seconds into overtime, but it was too late.
In a split-second, history and a memory-making photo happened all at once. Preserved thanks to Ray Lussier: Orr, the Bruins' version of Superman, in mid-air flight, tripped by Blues' defenseman Noel Picard, as helpless St. Louis goalie Glenn Hall realizes the game is over.
Hearing a rafter-shaking roar of the delirious crowd, beer cup in hand, the absent photographer rushed back to his spot, demanding Lussier to give it back.
Re-telling the story, Lussier always snickered at the memory.
''I told him, 'It's all yours. I've got what I need,' ''
Returning to his newsroom as the Bruins and their fans celebrated, Lussier told his boss he thought he had ''a couple of good shots'' of Orr's winning goal and immediately shuffled off to the dark room to develop his film.
When old Record-American sports editor Sam Cohen saw a contact sheet, showing tiny frames of each photo on Ray's roll of film, he pointed to one. Sam was up in years by this time, couldn't hear too well, and had a tendency to shout.
''That one right there!'' Cohen bellowed in his crusty voice at Lussier. ''Print it. Big!''
''I never would have got the picture if that other photographer didn't go running off to get a beer,'' Lussier would laugh, always modest about his great sense for action photos.
Years later, in early June of 1990, Bobby Orr decided to host a 20th anniversary reunion to get the Bruins' 1970 Stanley Cup gang together again. All the players on the team, their wives, trainers, management and media members who covered the team, were invited.
During a phone call one day, Orr asked if there was anybody along with the Bruins' beat writers that we thought should be invited.
Ray Lussier immediately came to mind. Ray, starting a career in 1964, briefly had worked for the old Haverhill Journal before the paper folded.
Orr's reaction was instantaneous.
''Ray,'' he bubbled, ''the one who shot the picture? Of course.''
A few days later the Lussiers got their personal invitation from Number 4.
''Ray was so thrilled to be at that reunion,'' Lussier's wife, Claire, was saying yesterday. ''Bobby Orr had his photo taken with him and the Stanley Cup. Ray was so proud.''
Not long afterwards, in 1991, Ray unexpectedly passed away at age 59. Much too young.
Today, his picture of Orr's magic moment hangs in the sport's cathedral, the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto. More than that, it is a treasure for thousands of fans who have copies in their special places, scrapbooks or framed on the walls of their homes.
Bobby Orr left a legacy for being in the right place at the right time.
So did Ray Lussier.
