2/18/1967 Bruins at Maple Leafs (second and third periods) rookie Bobby Orr is No. 1 star

This is a video of the Feb. 18, 1967 National Hockey League game between the Boston Bruins and the Maple Leafs in Toronto. It is joined in progress at the 18-minute mark of the first period. It is a Hockey Night in Canada broadcast on CBC that was re-aired on Maple Leafs TV. The announcers are Bill Hewitt on play by play and Brian McFarlane on color. This was the rookie season of Bruins Hall of Fame defenseman Bobby Orr, the only season he played in the Original Six, and the 18-year-old is easily the best player on the ice in this game, earning No. 1 star honors. In my opinion he was the best player in the NHL by now, too. The legendary Foster Hewitt wasn't quite ready to go there, but in the postgame he says of Orr, "He's almost a great one at the moment." Orr not only scored, he blocked shots, issued hard checks, rushed the puck, knew where everyone would be a step ahead of everybody else. Sublime! The name of Harry Howell came up during the broadcast; he knew. After winning the Norris Trophy for this season, Howell famously said, "I'm glad I won this one, because Bobby Orr (who placed 2d) will own it from now on." No. 4 won the next eight (8) Norrises! This video has been out there on YouTube. I posted it to trim 5-10 minutes of duplication and to provide a few Boston-fan-centric observations. Box score in comments.
