...shot to become the first N.H.L. player ever to score 100 points in regular season play. Boston Garden fans responded with a 15-minute standing ovation, showering him with hats, programs, and even a pink brassiere. Three weeks after Esposito's feat, baby-faced Bobby Orr celebrated his 21st birthday by firing in a last-second goal against Chicago.
