Baby Bruins go camping - no Boy Scouts welcome

The Providence Bruins were greeted with a special treat today, as Bruins' living legend Bobby Orr came to town to discuss defensive skills with the team - paying special heed to Zach Tarkir and Rick Kozack.

Both had spent time in defensive camp this week, and results showed they both came home with some new knowledge.

Tarkir, the twenty-one year old defenseman, was awe-struck by the presence of Orr in the practice. "I am pleased to have met Mr. Orr today. I am honored he took the time to talk to us, and I hope I can have an illustrious career as he did. Personally, I feel my skills improved about ten percent from before the camps. Hopefully my play will show that and the management will see it."

Meanwhile, the rightwinger Rick Kozack also expressed his opinion on camps and Orr, telling the gathered press "Pretty cool..." then shrugging.

Both men will be sent to passing camp next week, so they were mostly just picking up mail and changing bags for clothing.
