John Garrett: A broadcasting legend and a legendary human

John Garrett, marvellous entertainer, fine hockey player and all around good human died Tuesday at 74

 He was not on the list.

The always-at-ease, always-ready-to-laugh persona he presented on television was his true self. He was kind and generous. He cared for the people around him.

Those are base qualities for success in life and for success in the public sphere in general.

If he hadn’t been a funny goalie or funny broadcaster, maybe he’d have been a musician.

When he was young, his mother Marvel signed him and his six siblings — Joan, Bert, Evelyn, Eldon, Greg and Murdoch — up for piano lessons. She knew that it would get her kids credits for school, but she also knew it would serve them well in life.

So young John did his mother proud and got his grade 8 piano certification from the Royal Conservatory of Music. And he got his grade 2 in theory, too.

It became something of a lifelong habit; in 2020, with people mostly staying home to slow the spread of COVID-19, the man we know as Cheech got serious about his piano playing again. Years before, he’d given his daughter Krista his old piano. A couple years ago his family bought him a new keyboard and when the world stopped in March 2020, he started playing his piano more seriously again.

Musical talent is a family tradition: his younger brother Greg worked as a music teacher and still leads a choir in Ontario.

John Garrett, marvellous entertainer, fine hockey player and all around good human died Tuesday at 74 of what are believed to be natural causes. He had been in Utah to cover the Utah Mammoth vs. Vegas Golden Knights playoff series. Sportsnet announced his passing on Wednesday morning.

Along with daughters Sarah, Krista — and her children — he leaves his wife Sharon, his partner of more than 50 years.

Born June 17, 1951 in Trenton, Ont., he grew up in the small community of Glenn Miller just outside of Trenton. His father was also named John and was a school teacher and principal; mother Marvel was a homemaker.

Even as his parents pushed him academically, he proved to be an excellent goalie and played two seasons of Jr. A hockey for the Peterborough Petes, starting when he was 18. After two seasons of junior hockey he was drafted by the St. Louis Blues in 1971.

He played a seasons in the Blues’ system, but never got a sniff of NHL action as the Blues opted to give a series of NHL journeymen starts over the young goalie. Before the 1972-73 season, he was traded to the Chicago Blackhawks, but with the NHL club well-staffed in goal by Tony Esposito and Gary Smith, there wasn’t much hope for Garrett here either. Rather than being farmed out to the Blackhawks’ top farm team in Dallas, he split the season between the AHL’s Richmond Barons, who were actually the top affiliate of the Philadelphia Flyers, and the WHL’s Portland Buckaroos, a club filled with veteran pros who had long ago given up on their NHL dreams.

And so when the World Hockey Association’s Minnesota Fighting Saints came calling in the summer of 1973, he jumped.

The upstart league had the players at heart, he always argued. Rare were the opportunities in the NHL for 22 year old goalies like Garrett, but in Minnesota he quickly grew into a star. His first season he split starts evenly with Mike Curran. The next season, 1974-75, he made the bulk of the starts and helped the Fighting Saints make the semifinals where they lost to the eventual Avco Cup runners-up the Quebec Nordiques. Playing goal for Quebec was Garrett’s future Vancouver Canucks teammate Richard Brodeur.

The WHA may have revolutionized professional hockey by bringing in teenagers and signing star players to huge contracts, but by Garrett’s third season in Minnesota, the seams were starting to burst. The Saints drew strong crowds but struggled to sell much more than tickets. Despite not having a TV deal and minimal support from the business community — the NHL’s North Stars drew most of the attention — Saints ownership spent big on player salaries.

Eventually the money ran out; the team was confirmed as bankrupt as 1975 came to a close. The players voted to play on but went without pay for six weeks. After receiving just one paycheque in 1976, the team voted to not board a flight to Cincinnati on Feb. 28, 1976. That proved to be the end of the Saints. The team’s better players quickly found themselves scattered across the league; in Garrett’s case he landed with the Toronto Toros, who would become the Birmingham Bulls. After two seasons in the south, he joined the New England Whalers.

Re-branded as the Hartford Whalers, they would be one of the four teams to survive the collapse of the WHA in 1979 and jump to the NHL. After eight seasons as a pro, Garrett had finally made the NHL.

He played six NHL seasons in all, first with the Whalers, then with the Nordiques and finally with the Canucks. For the rest of his life he would speak up for what the WHA did for hockey, pointing directly to his own experience as a young player.

“It was a chance for the game to expand for sure. But for players’ rights, after the WHA, in the ’80s and ’90s, look at the rights and freedoms that the players started to get. They were all created because there was a rival league and you got to choose,” he told Postmedia in 2023. “Like in my case I’m playing behind Tony Esposito and Gary Smith, so it’s, ‘Oh, yeah, you go and play in Dallas, go play in Dallas for two or three years. And if one of those guys screw-up, well, then we’ll give it a chance.’

“And the 18-year-old draft and instead of, ‘Ah well, we’re not going to draft anybody till they’re 20 because then we don’t have to pay to develop.’ The owners had all the rights. And then the WHA came in.”

His arrival in Vancouver is well-told but remains hilarious. With the Canucks lacking an experienced backup to Richard Brodeur, GM Harry Neale traded for Garrett on Feb. 4, 1983. The Canucks faced the Toronto Maple Leafs the following night; Brodeur took a shot in the side of the head, damaging his eardrum. Garrett stepped in and then started the next night in New Jersey.

Brodeur had been named as the Canucks’ representative for the NHL All-Star game two days later, but clearly couldn’t play. The timing of his injury, plus the NHL’s policy of having each team represented by at least one player meant that the easiest solution was to simply name Garrett as Brodeur’s replacement, even though he’d only been a Canuck for three days.

Garrett very nearly stole the show on a Tuesday night in Long Island and looked set to win the MVP for the game until Wayne Gretzky erupted for four goals in the third period. The powers that be had no choice but to award the Great One the game MVP, which came with a car as a prize.

After Garrett’s time as a colour commentator on Canucks broadcasts came to an end in 2023, he was honoured by the city of Vancouver with a John Garrett Day. (Ken Sim, mayor of the time, was a high school pal of Garrett’s broadcast teammate John Shorthouse).

As part of the ceremony, Garrett was given a plaque, which partly read: “Wayne Gretzky is a puck hog and stole all the glory and a Pontiac Firebird from John.” When the plaque was unveiled, there were guffaws. The meal served that day, was, of course, his favourite meal: burgers and fries.

The day also happened to be McHappy Day, which led Garrett to quip to Postmedia: “It’s John Garrett McHappy Day.”

Garrett retired as a player in 1985 and was briefly hired by Harry Neale to be his assistant general manager, but Neale was fired weeks later and new GM Jack Gordon didn’t carry on with the AGM plan, so Garrett, still under contract, was relegated to third-string goalie duty, showing up to practices but left with not much else to do. Late in the season he was sent back to AHL Fredericton where he played the final three games of his career.

The next fall, Hockey Night in Canada’s John Shannon tapped Garrett to be a broadcaster. He was a quick study. Shannon told him to just tell the viewers what he knew best. He quickly realized that personality was also an important skill for a colour commentator and by the time he arrived full-time on Canucks broadcasts in 2002, he had polished his routine.

Working first with Jim Hughson and then later, most famously, John Shorthouse, he won the hearts of Canucks fans. His love of ketchup, of burgers and fries, of meeting with fans, became legendary.

He was always ready to share time with everyone who met him. He’d always express delight when fans would show up with his 1985-86 O-Pee-Chee hockey card, which depicted him in his goalie gear but noted “now assistant general manager” on the front. The silliness of the scene was fitting for a guy who became known so much for his personality.

Shorthouse once called him the best teammate he ever had. Sportsnet host Dan Murphy, who served as their off-ice chaperon for years and was with Garrett in Utah, covering the Vegas-Utah series, said his friend was in great spirits till the very end.

After Garrett’s passing, stories have been shared widely by colleagues and fans alike, all highlighting what a kind person he was.

He will be missed.

Doc Sauers obit

Legendary UAlbany men's basketball coach 'Doc' Sauers dies at 96

 

He was not on the list.

Richard "Doc" Sauers, who won more than 700 games while leading the University at Albany men's basketball program for more than four decades, died Monday. He was 96.

UAlbany athletic director Mark Benson confirmed Sauers' death Monday evening. A cause of death was not immediately available.

"Doc Sauers impacted generations of student-athletes, staff and members of the UAlbany community," Benson said in a statement. "He embodied what it means to be a Great Dane - committed, compassionate and deeply invested in the success and well-being of others. Doc built lasting relationships across our program and helped shape the culture of UAlbany athletics in meaningful ways. His legacy will be felt for years to come, and he will be missed tremendously."

Sauers took over the UAlbany program in 1955, when the school was still known as the New York State College for Teachers. He spent 41 seasons as the school's men's basketball coach in two stints - from 1955 to 1987, and then from 1988 to 1997 after missing one season. He posted a 702-330 overall record and Sauers' teams made 11 NCAA Division III tournament appearances, reaching the regional finals in 1977, 1980 and 1994.

The 1985 NCAA Division III Coach of the Year, Sauers was one of just 11 men's basketball coaches with at least 700 career wins at the time of his 1997 retirement.

UAlbany's best season under Sauers came in 1993-94 when the team finished 25-3 and reached the final eight of the NCAA Division III playoffs.

"‘Doc' was Albany basketball," said Jason Graber, a UAlbany Hall of Famer who starred on the 1993-94 team.

UAlbany made seven ECAC playoff appearances under Sauers, winning championships in 1978 and 1989. The Great Danes also made four NAIA tournament appearances during Sauers' tenure.

In his 41 total years running the program, Sauers only had one losing season, which came in UAlbany's first season after moving up from Division III to Division II.

"He was respected around the country," Graber said. "Playing in the SUNYAC (State University of New York Athletic Conference) for all those years, it was just the most-respected program - and he was probably one of the most-respected coaches in the country."

In addition to coaching basketball at UAlbany, Sauers also enjoyed success as the school's men's and women's golf coach, and briefly served as the UAlbany baseball coach in the late 1950s. After retiring from basketball in 1997, he coached women's golf until 2012. He oversaw that program's transition from Division II to Division I, and was selected as the America East Coach of the Year in 2010 after leading the Great Danes to the conference title.

After retiring from coaching, Sauers continued as a special assistant to the athletic director and was a regular presence on campus.

"I work out the days I come in. I work in the fitness center; the bike or the elliptical machines, or walk 10 laps around the gym," Sauers told the Times Union in 2016, when he was being honored for the 60th anniversary of his first basketball season. "That's a mile and a half. I try to keep in pretty good shape. Even when I coached, if we came back from a long trip, I would be in the gym running laps before I went home."

He was elected to the Basketball Coaches Association of New York's Hall of Fame in 1992. He's also a member of the Capital District Sports, UAlbany and Slippery Rock University halls of fame.

From 1975 to 1995, the Great Danes qualified for 10 NCAA tournaments. In 1993–94, UAlbany established a school record for victories with a 25–3 mark, and reached the Division III East Sectional final. UAlbany also qualified for the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) playoffs seven times and won a pair of championships in 1978 and 1989.

He guided the Great Danes to 20-win campaigns on 10 occasions, and his clubs reached the 17-victory plateau in 26 different seasons. He was named the 1985 NCAA Division III Coach of the Year after Albany went 22–6 and gained a national tournament berth. In 1994, he was chosen as both the East Region and New York State Coach of the Year for the third time in his career. Sauers was inducted into the New York State Basketball Hall of Fame in 1992. He has also been enshrined by Slippery Rock University and the Capital District Sports Hall of Fame.

Sauers finished his career with a 702–330 record in 41 seasons. In his final season, UAlbany went 17–10 as a member of the New England Collegiate Conference, and rebounded from his lone losing record the previous year. At the time, Sauers was one of two active coaches with more than 40-plus seasons at the same school. He became the 15th person to coach his 1,000th game at the collegiate level in February 1996.

Soon after retiring as basketball coach, Sauers became coach of the women's golf team, leading it through its transition to Division I. He'd also served as men's golf coach from 1962 to 1973 and as head baseball coach in 1958 and 1959. He retired in 2012 after spending 57 years at UAlbany.

Steve Maslow, Oscar-Winning Sound Mixer on ‘The Empire Strikes Back,’ ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’ and ‘Speed,’ Dies at 81

A seven-time nominee, he started out in the music business with the Strawberry Alarm Clock before teaming with Gregg Landaker on scores of movies.

 He was not on the list.

Steve Maslow, the top-notch re-recording mixer whose seven Oscar nominations for best sound included wins for The Empire Strikes Back, Raiders of the Lost Ark and Speed, has died. He was 81.

Maslow died Monday at a therapy facility in West Hills after a battle with cancer, his wife, Ronna Maslow, told The Hollywood Reporter.

The Los Angeles native also landed Oscar noms for his work on Dune (1984), Waterworld (1995), Twister (1996) and U-571 (2000).

Maslow did 200-plus features during his career, teaming with fellow mixer Gregg Landaker on more than 130 of them, starting with Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979). He specialized in dialogue and music while Landaker focused on sound effects, and he shared all his Oscar noms with him with the exception of Dune.

“Maz” also collaborated with John Carpenter on Escape From New York (1981), Halloween II (1981), The Thing (1982), Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982), Christine (1983), Starman (1984) and Escape From L.A. (1996) and with Tim Burton on Beetlejuice (1988), Edward Scissorhands (1990) and Batman Returns (1992).

Maslow was born on Oct. 17, 1944. His father worked for Mattel toys and his mother was a legal secretary. After graduating from Grant High School, he hooked up as a roadie in 1969 with the Strawberry Alarm Clock, setting up the sound for the psychedelic rock band that had a big hit with “Incense and Peppermint.”

“That opened up the whole music industry for me,” he said in 2017, and as a recording engineer, he served as a mixer on songs including “Oh What a Night (December 1963)” from Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons and “Boogie Oogie Oogie” from A Taste of Honey.

With the rise of garage bands and the music industry relying less on studios, Maslow looked around for an opportunity to become a film mixer.

He segued into the movie business and worked on four films released in 1978, including the documentary The Last Waltz, and other music films followed, including Hair (1979), The Kids Are Alright (1979), Rust Never Sleeps (1979) and Stop Making Sense (1984).

Before he knew it, Maslow was working with producer George Lucas on More American Graffiti (1979), The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) and picking up Oscars in consecutive years.

Maslow’s impressive film résumé also included The Wanderers (1979), 10 (1979), Ordinary People (1980), The Postman Always Rings Twice (1981), Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid (1982), My Favorite Year (1982), The Dead Zone (1983), St. Elmo’s Fire (1985), Teen Wolf (1985), Ferris Bueller’s Day Off (1986), Children of a Lesser God (1986), Angel Heart (1987), Broadcast News (1987), The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988), Pet Sematary (1989), Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls (1995), Patch Adams (1998), Bruce Almighty (2003), The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005), X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), Rocky Balboa (2006), The Town (2010), The Great Gatsby (2013), The Conjuring (2013), Non-Stop (2014) and Mad Max: Fury Road (2015). There are too many movies to mention.

In addition to his wife, survivors include his son, Travis, and a granddaughter.

“We lost one of the best of the best, and so many who loved him are heartbroken today,” 16-time Oscar-nominated sound mixer Greg P. Russell wrote on Instagram. “We’ll miss you buddy, and thanks for all the memories. Anytime he ever walked onto a stage I was mixing on, he’d walk over to me and lean on my shoulder and say, ‘You’re not gonna leave it like that, are ya????’ Loved to laugh with him.”
