Complete with the first defenseman to score 100 points in an NHL season, the Boston Bruins readied themselves for a match-up against the three-time finalist St. Louis Blues. Bobby Orr was that defenseman, and he ended up scoring the cup-winning goal. Orr scored the winner in overtime, who, after scoring was tripped up by Blues' Noel Picard and literally flew through the air. The Bruins ended a 29-year Cup drought, dating back to 1941. Orr capped his finest season winning the Conn Smythe and Norris trophies.
