The unsung hero is no longer unsung. Boston hockey fans made sure of that, when they made him an overwhelming selection for Channel 38's "Seventh Player Award" . .. Fred Stanfield won a foreign sports car for his selection and also recognition as a major cog in the vaunted Bruins machine. . . But the Bruins brass and teammates have been aware of Fred's capabilities right along . . . Since his acquisition from Chicago, four years ago, he has centered for John Bucyk and John McKenzie. . Playing together consistently, this trio has become one of the most effective in the N.H.L. greatly due to Standfield's playmaking . . . Fred operates a hockey school in the off-season, in his native St. Catharines, Ont., and also owns a piece of the Weymouth, Mass., hockey school with the Sault Ste Marie, Ont., trio, the Esposito brothers, Phil and Tony, and Matt Ravlich . . . His year-round home is in Wakefield, Mass. with his wife and son, Dean.
