Statmuse had Orr with 116 ES points in 1970-71, the year he was +124.

But it seems you are right. He had 49 points on the PP and another 13 shorthanded. 139 points in total. Too bad because that statmuse graph is kind of cool. But just wrong I guess because their own numbers don't add up

It's kind of amazing Orr didn't have even more ES points that year considering he was +124. I wonder if the secondary assist wasn't given out like candy as it is now.
