by Robert B. Jackson ‧ RELEASE DATE: Nov. 1, 1971

Puncutated only by an apparently endless succession of trophies and injuries, Bobby Orr's career moves smoothly from precocious success (beginning with his debut in the Minor Squirt League at the age of five) to superstardom. Making the safe assumption that he is speaking to knowledgeable Orr fans, Jackson quickly reviews the highlights, referring familiarly to ""the controversial Conacher fight,"" and concentrates on the glories of the 1970 Stanley Cup playoffs.

The message is short, and already familiar to any Bruin fan: ""VictORRy Comes NatORRly of cORRse.
