Timeline

1944

Frederic William Stanfield (May 4, 1944 – September 13, 2021) was a Canadian professional ice hockey centre who played 14 seasons in the National Hockey League from 1964 until 1978.

Stanfield was born in Toronto on May 4, 1944.

He had six brothers, most of whom would eventually become professional hockey players.

As was the practice at the time, Stanfield was signed by the Chicago Black Hawks at age 16 (as were his brothers Jim and Jack), and assigned to the junior league St. Catharines Teepees (later St. Catharines Black Hawks), their Ontario Hockey Association affiliate.

Playing with many future NHL teammates and stars—the team's roster included Phil Esposito, Ken Hodge, Roger Crozier, Chico Maki, Dennis Hull and Poul Popiel —Stanfield played three seasons for St. Catharines.

1964

The final two seasons he led the team in scoring, and his final season, 1964, he was third in the league in scoring with 109 points, as well as being awarded the Max Kaminsky Trophy as the league's most sportsmanlike player.

Called up for the 1964–65 season to the big league squad, Stanfield played the full season with Chicago, and then the next two seasons split his time between the Black Hawks and Chicago's St. Louis minor league affiliate.

1967

In May 1967, Stanfield was traded, along with Phil Esposito and Ken Hodge, to the Boston Bruins, for defenceman Gilles Marotte, centre Pit Martin, and minor league goaltender Jack Norris.

The trade came to be widely regarded as one of the most one-sided deals in hockey history, as Boston immediately became a powerhouse, moving from a last place team to a perennial power.

1969

While Esposito became a preeminent star in Boston and Hodge became a league All-Star, Stanfield centered the team's second line, with wingers John Bucyk and Johnny McKenzie—which some considered the best second line in hockey —as well as playing the right point on the Bruins' feared top power play unit, helping the team to lead the league in power play goals every year between 1969 and 1972.

He scored 20 or more goals in every one of the six years he played for Boston, with the Bruins leading the league in goals in each of those seasons.

Stanfield maintained a residence in the Town of Mississauga as of 1969.

Stanfield lived in the Buffalo area, and owned an office furniture store.

He was an active member of the Buffalo Sabres Alumni Association and organized several alumni tournaments.

He died on September 13, 2021.

1970

He won two Stanley Cups with the Boston Bruins, in 1970 and 1972.

He was known as a clean player, as only once did he receive more than 14 penalty minutes in any season of his professional career.

He became noted for a heavy slap shot, making his mark in the first game of the 1970 Stanley Cup Finals against the St. Louis Blues when he fired a shot so hard it split Blues goaltender Jacques Plante's mask in half, giving Plante a concussion which sidelined him for the remainder of the playoffs.

1971

Stanfield's best years were between the 1971 and 1973 seasons.

In 1971, he scored 76 points to finish 9th in league scoring.

He also received the team's 7th Player Award, voted by the fans for the player performing most beyond expectations.

1972

In the 1972 season, he scored 23 goals and 56 assists for 79 points, finishing 4th in the league in assists and 12th in the league in points, and added 7 goals and 9 assists for 16 points in 15 playoff games to help the Bruins to the Stanley Cup championship.

He was a leading candidate for the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy for the league's most sportsmanlike player, finishing behind eventual winner Jean Ratelle of the New York Rangers and teammate Johnny Bucyk.

Greatly depleted in goaltending by the losses of Gerry Cheevers to the World Hockey Association and Dan Bouchard to the Atlanta Flames in the 1972 NHL Expansion Draft, Boston's goaltending was down to 36-year-old career minor leaguer Ross Brooks and 44-year-old late season acquisition Jacques Plante.

Determined to bolster that position, new Boston general manager Harry Sinden traded Stanfield to the Minnesota North Stars for goaltender Gilles Gilbert.

Shifted to the right wing for the centre-rich North Stars, he played a season and a half for Minnesota, with much reduced production.

1973

Stanfield followed up in the next season, when he scored 20 goals and 58 assists for 78 points, and was named to play in the 1973 All-Star Game as an injury replacement.

Stanfield finished the season 7th in the league in assists.

1974

Mired in a slump, Stanfield was traded to the Buffalo Sabres in the middle of the 1974–75 season for journeyman Norm Gratton and Buffalo's third round choice (Ron Zanussi) in the 1976 NHL Amateur Draft.

He quickly broke out of his slump, scoring 33 points in 32 games for the Sabres, and contributing to the team's push to the Stanley Cup Finals, where they eventually lost to the Philadelphia Flyers.

1978

Stanfield played the next three seasons for Buffalo, ending his NHL career with the team in 1978.

He played the next season for the Hershey Bears of the American Hockey League, retiring as a player partway through the season when he was named the interim coach for the team, serving through the end of the season.

1980

His last position in organized hockey was the 1980 season for the Niagara Falls Flyers of the OHA, when he was again named a mid-season replacement as head coach.

Stanfield played 914 career NHL games, scoring 211 goals and 405 assists for 616 points.

Two of Stanfield's brothers, Jim Stanfield and Jack Stanfield, also played in the NHL.

His youngest brother, Vic Stanfield, was a two-time All-American for Boston University.
