In case you don't know, Bobby Orr is a former NHL defenceman. In his first 10 seasons, he helped take the Bruins to 3 Stanley Cup Finals, winning two times in the process. The 1979 Hall-Of-Fame inductee also remains the only defenceman to win two Art Ross trophies. He played 10 seasons with the Bruins before playing in Chicago for two more years. He unfortunately retired at the age of 30 due to injuries, but he still remains one of the best players in NHL history.

Overall, the free update, which comes right after the patch, is a nice added touch for fans of the game. We certainly look forward to what else EA Sports plans to release during the lifespan of NHL 24.

The NHL 24 Bobby Orr update dropped November 9th, so he's yours whenever you feel like getting on some Chel.
