Bobby Orr, though he did not have a lengthy career, is unquestionably without

peer as defencemen go. He was the most powerful skating defenceman in the history of the game and could do incredible things with the puck. A critical part of his scoring skill was his ability to shoot the puck from the point hard and low, resulting in many deflections. Rarely did his shots traject more than waist high, so they were more frequently shots on goal. That's one key reason why he was an Art Ross Trophy winner. There hasn't been a defenceman before or since Orr who possessed the skill levels he did.
