As members of the 100 Greatest met with the NHL's current stars prior to puck drop on the NHL All-Star Game in Los Angeles, the greatest defenseman in history, Bobby Orr, eschewed the traditional handshake when greeting today's top scoring blue-liner, Brent Burns.
Good grip, when you consider Burns' passion for beard oils.

The moment was just as special for Burns.
