During one lackluster game, Derek Sanderson sensed Orr's gaze.
Instead of meeting his eyes, Sanderson discreetly asked Phil Esposito if Orr was paying attention to him. Esposito, having already scored two goals, confirmed Orr's focus wasn't on him.
This subtle message from Orr served as a gentle push for Sanderson, inspiring him to step up his performance in the third period.
