    Derek is something else. I have a Sanderson sweater, '71 season, year of my birth. I don't have it because of his fights and craziness. I have it because of his Helpers. And while he did have the best assist ever in the NHL that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about all the kids he Helped after he retired. And thank God for friends Derek could count on even if he wasn't looking for help himself, friends like Bobby Orr.

    Back in the late 60s to early 70s it seemed like the CBS network Saturday afternoon NHL games always featured the Bruins. To this day I can name about a dozen guys on their 1970 roster. As a 16-19 year old teenager in those days, I was a Sanderson fan. Not surprising, I was also a Namath fan at the same time. Both were "cool guys". I remember that Sanderson would compare himself to Namath on the Tonight Show. A bygone era.

    There were lots of good stories from the WHA that sort of got glossed over, but it's understood there's only so much you can put in a 10 minute video. The only hockey book I've ever read was "The Rebel League: The Short and Unruly Life of the World Hockey Association" and it had the better part of a chapter dedicated to Sanderson. He was known to haul hay around his farm in his Rolls Royce because all of his farm equipment had been repossessed. He also had a contract at one point during his WHA days where he'd only play home games.

    Turk was much more than the best 3rd line/checking/faceoff winning center of his era...he was the total package; a Calder Trophy, (Rookie of the Year) winner, a skilled goal scoring/playmaker, a very tough, capable pugilist & perhaps above all, a team player.
    He never drank alcohol or used drugs until the NHL, unfortunately, his addictive challenges, coupled with fame & fortune, derailed his life for far too long. When he signed with the WHA, Philidelphia Blazers, in 1972, he became the highest paid athlete in the WORLD, for about a week, until Pele surpassed him.

Derek Sanderson was certainly the best face-off player in the history of the game. I remember being in BeanTown and getting a tour of the old Boston Gardens.

    Sanderson was okay. The Bruins were and still are a popular team, but being called ''the most popular team on the planet'' is obviously a wild exaggeration. Then again,the narrator comes from a country where hockey is hardly popular.

    I remember him well in Boston. Funny story. I was listening to Calling All Sports one night on WBZ with Guy Manila. Some guy called in to complain about how crazy Bruin fans were about Sanderson. The caller said he saw Sanderson at a restaurant and touched him. The girst at his high school wanted to kiss his hand the next next day. Manila, without missing a beat, said "you should have lied and said your lips brushed across his jacket." In Philly, where he was a bust, they called him the "hairy fairy." A different era.

    Thrill seeking, fast living, drugs or alcohol. Too bad. I don’t feel bad for these athletes that do this. Most (60-65%) of the NBA players (with much higher salaries) become broke within 5 years of retirement. In spite of coaching, financial counseling etc. 78% of NFL players have financial crisis’ within 5 years of retirement. It’s a shame.
