Flying to Victory

May 10, 1970

On May 10, 1970, while being knocked off his feet into what looked like a Superman dive, Bobby Orr of the Bruins flicked in the Stanley Cup-winning goal against the St. Louis Blues. The goal took place 40 seconds into overtime, where Derek Sanderson passed to Orr, a defender knocked Orr forward and Orr, with his stick still on the ground, timed the position of the puck to score.
