Details

Stanfield played 110 games with the Blackhawks over three seasons between 1964-65 and 1966-67, splitting time with the St. Louis Braves of the CPHL. Being part of the trade that also sent Phil Esposito and Ken Hodge to Boston jump-started his NHL career. In his six years with the Bruins, he scored at least 20 goals, topping out with 25 in 1968-69.

Against his former team on December 14, 1968 at Boston Garden, Stanfield had a four point game in a 10-5 win over the Blackhawks. He scored his 14th of the 1968-69 NHL season at 11:03 of the third, assisted by Ted Green and John Bucyk. That goal was sandwiched between markers by John McKenzie and Ed Westfall (both assisted by Stanfield) for three Boston goals in a span of just 1:33. Fred also assisted on a Bucyk goal in the first period.

Fred would help the Bruins win two Stanley Cup championships before moving on to the Minnesota North Stars and Buffalo Sabres. Over 914 regular season NHL games, he scored 211 goals and totaled 616 points. He played in an impressive 106 playoff games.

His ‘fine’ junior career was with the St. Catharines Blackhawks from 1961-62 to 1963-64. In his final season, he put up 109 points in 56 games. That placed him third in the league behind Andre Boudrias and Yvan Cournoyer, both from the Montreal Junior Canadiens. His 75 assists were good for second behind Boudrias.
