EA Sports announced today that they will be adding an absolute hocket legend into NHL 24, as Bobby Orr will be coming to the game for a limited time.

“As a Boston Bruin for ten seasons, Bobby Orr helped lead the team to the playoffs eight consecutive years and to two Stanley Cups in 1970 and 1972, in which he famously scored the championship-winning goal in sudden death overtime (1970) and was also awarded the Conn Smythe Trophy as MVP both years. During his career, Orr received more than 16 major awards, and notably won the James Norris Trophy as the most valuable defenseman from 1968 to 1975. Orr retired in 1978, having appeared in 631 games and recorded 264 goals, and was elected into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1979. In NHL 24, Bobby Orr will be a part of the Boston Bruins Alumni Team and is tied with Mario Lemieux and Wayne Gretzky as the highest-rated player in the game at 97 Overall. In October, the Boston Bruins announced that Orr made the All-Centennial Team, composed of the 20 most legendary players in franchise history, and in celebration, players can play as the Hall of Famer in-game, claim Bruins uniforms in the store, as well as expect additional Orr-themed content updates in the HUT, HUT Moments, World of Chel, Play Now and Franchise modes.”
