Default RIP Fred Sasakamoose

This is the last card I needed to complete my 1954-55 Parkhurst set with the Lucky Premium backs, #82 Fred Sasakamoose. I also needed #82 for my set with the regular style backs, and picked that one up too (it's somewhere between here in NE Florida and Laval Quebec Canada lol). As a set builder it's always interesting to figure out why a certain card is the last one you need (usually it's one of the expensive rookie cards or superstar player).

according to wikipedia:
*Fred Sasakamoose was one of the first indigenous players in the NHL.
*Played in only 11 games in his NHL career
*Was a Chief Ahtahkakoop Cree Nation

Fred passed away 11/20/2020 due to Covid-19

What else do I need to know about Fred Sasakamoose?

Larry
