Watch Bobby Orr, Derek Sanderson serve as Bruins' Stanley Cup Game 5 banner captains

Share

The Boston Bruins picked a fitting duo to serve as the honorary fan banner captains for Game 5 of the 2019 Stanley Cup Final against the St. Louis Blues.

Bruins legend Bobby Orr and two-time champion Derek Sanderson waved the banner flag before Thursday night's matchup at TD Garden. 

Orr clinched the 1970 Stanley Cup title for the Bruins with his famous flying goal in overtime of Game 4 versus the Blues, and the man who passed him the puck was Sanderson. It's one of the most iconic plays in the history of sports.

Orr and Sanderson were joined by Special Olympics athlete Missie Kennedy. Check out the scene in the video below.

Orr also served as the fan banner captain before Game 2 of the Eastern Conference final against the Carolina Hurricanes, which Boston won 6-2.

The series is tied at two wins apiece entering Game 5.
