Bobby Orr was in 11k skates.

When he skated in that video he was in Flexlites, figure a guy with that many knee problems wouldn't want a skate with a stiff composite shell like that.

What do you expect? He's about 100 and he played 15 years in the NHL, before they paid much attention to things like conditioning and weight lifting. I'm sure his joints don't feel too great in the cold weather.

Nope, they are purple-ish brown.

I've only seen those jerseys (Boston) on tv...the shoulders are brown, right? Which would lend to the idea that they are wearing brown gloves as well.

The Bruins practiced with their dark brown gloves, helmets and overpants in preparation for the Winter Classic. About two-thirds of their players have received the right size gloves to start breaking them in for Jan. 1.

Didn't mean it in a bad way, just that with the wear and tear on his body he's probably not going to be exactly spry at that age.
