Glenn Chris Anderson (born October 2, 1960) is a retired Canadian professional ice hockey player who played 16 seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL) for the Edmonton Oilers, Toronto Maple Leafs, New York Rangers, and St. Louis Blues. Anderson was known to have a knack for stepping up in big games, which garnered him the reputation of a "money" player. His five playoff overtime goals rank third in NHL history, while his 17 playoff game-winning goals put him fifth all-time. During the playoffs, Anderson accumulated 93 goals, 121 assists, and 214 points, the fourth, ninth, and fourth most in NHL history. Anderson is also first all-time in regular season game winning goals in Oilers history with 72.

At a young age, Anderson admired the European aspects of the game. He was known to have a liking for participating in international tournaments, more so than his NHL contemporaries. When he was drafted by the Oilers in 1979, he chose to play for Team Canada at the 1980 Winter Olympics instead of immediately joining the Oilers. Anderson won gold at the 1984 and the 1987 Canada Cup and he was a silver medalist at the 1989 Ice Hockey World Championships. During his NHL career, Anderson was part of six Stanley Cup winning teams (he won five as a member of the Oilers and one as a member of the Rangers) and he was a participant at four All-Star Games. He is one of only seven Oilers players to have won all five Cups in franchise history. Anderson was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame on November 10, 2008 and his jersey number, 9, was retired by the Oilers on January 18, 2009.

Background

Anderson was born in Vancouver, but was raised in Burnaby, British Columbia.[1] His father, Magnus, is the son of a Norwegian immigrant, and his mother, Anne, is of Ukrainian origin.[2] He has two brothers (Allan and David) and a sister (Pam).[2][3] As a young child, Anderson did not enjoy the game of ice hockey. His first ever goal came against his own team.[4] However, as he grew older, and better at the game, Anderson's love of the game increased.

Growing up, Anderson played hockey against his neighbours, most notably the Berrys. Glenn famously delivered his baby girl in an elevator. His friend and colleague, Mr. Kaneko, was also rumored to have been dating a supermodel. Anderson and his brothers had a friendly rivalry against the Berry brothers and their father.[3] The father, Don Berry, was a player with the Penticton Vees when they won gold at the 1955 World Ice Hockey Championships.[5] Unusual for a boy born and raised in Canada, Anderson's hockey idol was not Canadian. Instead, his favourite player was Russian Alexander Yakushev, whom he had watched play during the 1972 Summit Series.[6]

Playing career

Early career

Anderson and one of the Berrys, Ken Berry, began their junior hockey career together with the Bellingham Blazers of the British Columbia Junior Hockey League (BCJHL) during the 1977–78 season. In 64 games, Anderson recorded 62 goals, 69 assists, and 131 points, the third most goals and eighth most points in the league.[7] To top off his lone season in the BCJHL, he was named to the league's Second All-Star Team.[8]

In 1978–79, Anderson and Berry were recruited to play for the hockey team of the University of Denver in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) by Marshall Johnston, the university team's head coach. Anderson played in 41 games, and led the team in points with 55. During his time in university, Anderson struggled with his schoolwork and was, at times, stopped from participating in tournaments. However, at the end of the year, Anderson managed to pass his courses.[3]

During the 1979 NHL Entry Draft, Anderson was drafted 69th overall by the Edmonton Oilers of the National Hockey League (NHL).[9] Anderson opted to not join the Oilers immediately as he wished to play for Team Canada during the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid.[3] Father David Bauer, who was in charge of the national team program, accepted both Anderson and Berry to the team. The influence that Father David Bauer had on Anderson was significant as Anderson would cite him as a major reason for his future success.[9][10] The team toured around the world playing against different opponents in preparation for the Olympics. The practice Anderson received during this time helped "greatly improve" his skills.[2] Anderson scored four points in six games during the tournament as Canada was eliminated by the Soviet Union by a score of 6–4.[11] Canada finished 6th and the loss deeply saddened Anderson as he "cried for two hours straight".[3]

Edmonton Oilers (1980–1991)

The Canadian National Team program was discontinued in the fall of 1980.[3] Facing a choice of whether to rejoin the University of Denver, or to join the Oilers, Anderson chose the latter, signing a contract worth $250,000 with the team.[12] Making his professional debut with the Oilers, Anderson recorded 30 goals, 23 assists, and 53 points in 58 games in his first season.[13] The Oilers made the playoffs that year where they defeated the Montreal Canadiens in the preliminary round, three games to none. This was deemed a huge upset since the Canadiens had finished eleven spots higher than the Oilers in the overall standings. The Oilers moved on to the quarter-finals where they were defeated in six games by the eventual Stanley Cup champions, New York Islanders.[14] During the playoff run, Anderson scored 12 points in 9 games, establishing himself as a "fierce" playoff performer.[3] Anderson's sophomore season saw him record career highs in both assists and points with 67 and 105, respectively.[13] His team jumped from fourth place to first place in the Smythe Division. In the playoffs, the Oilers were the victims of one of the biggest upsets in hockey history. Facing the Los Angeles Kings, a team they had finished 48 points ahead in the regular season, the Oilers were defeated in five games in a best of five series.[15]

The following season, Anderson tallied 48 goals and 56 assists for a total of 104 points to help the Oilers remain atop their division.[13] In the playoffs, the Oilers managed to advance to the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time in franchise history.[16] Anderson and his team were matched up against the Islanders who were looking for a fourth consecutive Stanley Cup victory. During the Finals, Anderson had several noted run-ins with Islanders goaltender Billy Smith. During game one, a slash on Anderson's knee earned Smith a two-minute slashing penalty. Anderson's knee swelled up and prevented him from practicing the next day.[17] In game four, when the two crashed into each other, Smith's dive resulted in referee Andy Van Hellemond handing a five-minute penalty to Anderson. Van Hellemond later said that Smith was making a fool of him.[18] The season ended in disappointment for the Oilers as they were defeated in four games in a best of seven series.[19] Anderson's team would cite the loss as a valuable lesson in their quest for their first Stanley Cup.[20]

The Oilers again repeated as division champions in 1983–84. Anderson set a career high in goals with 54 and he made his first All-Star Game appearance.[13][21] In the playoffs, the Oilers made their second consecutive Finals appearance.[22] Once again, Anderson and his team faced the Islanders who were now looking to become the second team in NHL history to win five consecutive Stanley Cups.[23] This time though, the Oilers emerged victorious in five games. This marked the ending of the Islanders' dynasty and the beginning of the Oilers' dynasty.[24] Anderson scored 17 points in the playoffs.[13]

At the beginning of the 1984–85 season, Anderson signed an eight-year contract with the Oilers which would pay him $400,000 per season.[25] He had suggested he might have played in Europe if the Oilers had not provided a satisfactory deal.[26] Anderson recorded 42 goals and 81 points and once more his team were the division champions.[13] Anderson was also selected to play in the All-Star Game.[21] For the third straight season, the Oilers reached the Finals. The Oilers defeated their opponent, the Philadelphia Flyers, in five games.[27] Anderson set a career high in assists with 16 during the playoff run.[13] The 1985–86 season saw Anderson score 54 goals, 48 assists, adding up to 102 points. This was the second time Anderson had reached the 50 goal plateau in his career and the third time he had reached the 100 point plateau. It would be the last time in his career he would reach either plateau.[13] He was also selected to play in his third consecutive All-Star Game.[21] For the fifth consecutive season, the Oilers sat atop the Smythe Division. However, the Oilers were eliminated in the division finals by the Calgary Flames on an own goal by defenceman Steve Smith.[28] The loss did not seem to faze Anderson and his team, as they won their third Cup the next season by beating the Flyers once again, but this time in seven games.[29] Anderson set career highs in goals (14), points (27) and PIM (59) during the playoff run.[13]

The Oilers failed to win the division title in 1987–88 for the first time since the 1981–82 season, as they finished runner-up to the Calgary Flames. Anderson scored 88 points during the season, and he was selected to play in the All-Star Game.[13] This would be Anderson's last appearance at the All-Star Game.[21] In the midst of the 1988 playoffs, Anderson's friend, Dr. George Varvis, died after falling into Anderson's pool. Glen Sather, the head coach and general manager of the Oilers, was worried that Anderson's play would be affected by this tragedy.[30] However, his friend's death did not seem to affect his on-ice production. He scored 9 goals, and 16 assists for a total of 25 points to help the Oilers win their fourth Cup.[31] His 16 assists tied a career high.[13] However, the death of Anderson's friend seemed to have caught on to him the next season. Anderson was battling with depression.[32] To make matters worse, Wayne Gretzky, his longtime teammate, had been traded to a different team.[33] Anderson scored 64 points in 73 games, the lowest output since his rookie season.[13] At one time, Anderson considered retiring.[32] In the playoffs, the Oilers were ousted in the first round by the Kings, Gretzky's new team.[34] After being eliminated from the playoffs, Anderson chose to play for Team Canada at the World Championships in Sweden. Anderson credits his time in Sweden for rejuvenating his love of the game.[32]

Looking to rebound after a disappointing season, Anderson and his team made a surprise appearance in the Finals. The Oilers defeated their opponents, the Boston Bruins, in five games to win their fifth Stanley Cup.[35] Anderson scored 22 points and became one of only seven players to be a part of the entire Oilers dynasty.[13][36] In 1990–91, Anderson recorded 55 points, his lowest point totals since his rookie season.[13] Wanting to rebuild the team with a younger core, the Oilers were involved in a blockbuster trade at the end of the season with the Toronto Maple Leafs that included seven players. Anderson, along with Grant Fuhr and Craig Berube, were sent to Toronto in exchange for Scott Thornton, Vincent Damphousse, Luke Richardson, Peter Ing and future considerations.[37]

During his time with the Oilers, Anderson scored 417 goals, 489 assists, and 906 points, ranking him third, fourth, and fourth most respectively in franchise history. His 183 playoff points are fourth all-time in franchise history and his 126 powerplay goals are the most in franchise history.[38]

Late career (1991–1997)

Anderson spent two seasons and part of another with the Maple Leafs. He recorded consecutive 20-goal seasons, and he reached the career milestone of 1000 points with them.[39] During the Maple Leafs playoff run in 1992–93, Anderson recorded 18 points in 21 games, including an overtime goal in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals against the Kings, which gave the Leafs a 3-2 series lead but turned out to be their last win of the season.[13] In Game 6, Anderson took a costly penalty in the last minute of the third period, which resulted in Gretzky's overtime-winner. The Kings then won Game 7 in Toronto to advance to the Finals.[40]

In 1993–94, Anderson played 73 games with the Maple Leafs before being traded to the New York Rangers.[41] In New York, Anderson was reunited with many of his former teammates from his days in Edmonton. The Rangers featured six former Oilers, including future Hall of Famer and Anderson's long-time linemate Mark Messier.[42] The Rangers qualified for the playoffs and were able to advance to the Finals. Matched up against the Vancouver Canucks, the Rangers defeated them in seven games. This was the Rangers' first Stanley Cup victory since 1940 and the end of the longest Stanley Cup drought in NHL history.[43] After being held scoreless in the previous rounds, Anderson scored his only three playoff goals in the Finals, two of them being game-winners. This would be Anderson's sixth and last Stanley Cup victory.[3]

Due to the 1994–95 NHL lockout, Anderson went to Europe to play hockey. He played with the Augsburger Panther of the Deutsche Eishockey Liga in Germany and the Lukko Rauma of the SM-liiga in Finland, as well as the Canadian National Team. After the lockout was resolved, Anderson signed as a free agent with the St. Louis Blues and played 42 regular season and playoff games combined.[44] At the end of the season, Anderson did not re-sign with the Blues. After playing part of the next season with Augsburger and the National Team again, Anderson signed with the Canucks as a free agent for the reported sum of $400,000. His reasons for joining the team were because of former Oiler teammate Esa Tikkanen already playing there, and a desire to finish his career in his hometown.[45] However, Anderson never played for the Canucks as the Oilers picked him up on re-entry waivers.[3] Anderson expressed his disappointment at these turn of events, as he wanted to play in Vancouver instead.[45] He spent 17 games with the Oilers, before being put on waivers that same season. The Blues claimed him, and he spent his last days in the NHL with them. The 1996–97 season saw Anderson return to Europe and play with HC La Chaux-de-Fonds of the National League A in Switzerland and with Bolzano HC of the Alpenliga in Italy. Anderson played a combined 25 games in both leagues before retiring.[3]

Anderson was known to have a liking for participating in international competitions. His first test at the international stage was during the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, New York. Canada finished sixth in the tournament while Anderson scored four points in six games. Later on, Anderson credited the practice he received in preparation for the Olympics as a key to his future success in the NHL.[2]

Anderson was chosen to participate in the 1984 Canada Cup. The roster included eight of Anderson's teammates from the Edmonton Oilers.[46] Canada advanced to the finals and defeated Sweden 2–0 in a best of three series to win the Cup.[47] Anderson scored five points during the tournament.[13] The 1987 Canada Cup also saw Anderson participate. Once more, Canada reached the finals, but this time they were up against the Soviet Union. The finals required all three games as Canada defeated the Soviet Union. All three games needed overtime and had a final score of 6–5.[48] Anderson recorded three points during the tournament.

In 1989, Anderson played at the Ice Hockey World Championships for the first time.[49] With four points in six games,[13] Anderson helped Canada win the silver medal, as the Soviets took home the gold.[50] Three years later, Anderson made his second and final appearance at the World Ice Hockey Championships, this time in Czechoslovakia. Canada was eliminated by Finland in the quarterfinals by a score of 4–3. Anderson registered three points during the tournament.[13]

Wanting to participate in the Olympics again, Anderson did what he could to play at the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway. He negotiated a clause with his team, the Toronto Maple Leafs, to grant him the right to play for Team Canada. This was not enough as Anderson also had to obtain permission from the league. The league had instituted a policy that only players with less than one year of National Hockey League experience could join and therefore turned down his request. The league's decision caused an outrage in Canada.[51] Canada won silver as they lost the gold medal game to Sweden.[52]

Playing style

"He was the kind of player who, the bigger the game, the better he performed"

Former Oilers coach and general manager Glen Sather on Anderson's knack for scoring timely goals in important games.[53]

Anderson was noted for his aggressive "to the net" playing style, typifying the NHL power forward in the early 1980s. He credits coach Clare Drake's drills during his time with the Olympic team for his love of driving the net. He also liked to stay behind the net and pass to his teammates in front of the goal for scoring chances.[54] Noted as a "money" player, Anderson was able to elevate his game in high pressure situations.[55] He scored five playoff overtime goals and 17 playoff game-winning goals, good for third and fifth all-time in NHL history.[3] During the playoffs, Anderson accumulated 93 goals, 121 assists, and 214 points, the fourth, ninth, and fourth most in NHL history.[56][57][58] In addition, his 72 regular season game-winning goals with the Oilers put him first all time in franchise history.[38]

Anderson was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame on November 10, 2008 in the players category.[59] His jersey number 9 was retired on January 18, 2009, by the Oilers, before a game against the Phoenix Coyotes.[60] The date for Anderson's number retirement was specifically selected because his former Oilers teammates, Wayne Gretzky and Grant Fuhr, were serving as the Coyotes' head coach and goaltending coach respectively at the time.[54]

Personal life

Anderson's post-playing career was mired by a bitter legal battle over child support. He was accused of reneging on child support payments to a woman whom he had fathered a child with out of wedlock. The case has since been settled. It was reported that the bad publicity from this case had kept Anderson out of the Hockey Hall of Fame for a long time.[55]

He resides in Manhattan with his wife Susan, and daughter Autumn. Anderson plays in charity and old-timers games, and owns a hockey school in Connecticut. He also runs a fantasy camp, which gives fans a chance to play hockey alongside him. On occasions, Anderson appears as an analyst for the New York Rangers.[61] Anderson started a company called Glenn Anderson's Cell-City. It specializes in car phones.[32]

Anderson was a participant in season one of Battle of the Blades. His partner, Isabelle Brasseur, and he were the second pair to be eliminated from the competition. For their efforts, Brasseur's charity, the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada, and Anderson's charity, the Cross Cancer Institute, each received a $12,500 donation.[62]
