NEVER.... Bobby Orr was a man among men and didn't need no stinkin' helmet because he knew nobody had the guts to hit a puck at his head and anyone that would take a swing at him had another thing coming ... and it was usually their own hide that he'd be handing back to them
He did wear #27 for 3 or 4 exhibition games and was pictured once with that number. No always number 4. He might have worn 30 before the Bruins and then when he got called up to play for them the number might have been taken already. I have him in a picture and a Boston sweater #30 so what was that about?
