Sittler's journey began with the Toronto Maple Leafs, who drafted him eighth overall in 1970. He quickly established himself as an offensive force, showcasing a smooth skating stride, a lethal slap shot, and a knack for finding the net. During the 1975-76 season, Sittler achieved the seemingly impossible, scoring an astonishing 10 points (six goals, four assists) in a single game against the Buffalo Sabres, a feat that still stands as an NHL record.

Beyond his record-breaking night, Sittler consistently led the Maple Leafs in scoring throughout the 1970s. He won the Art Ross Trophy (awarded to the league's leading scorer) in 1975, a testament to his offensive dominance. However, team success eluded him in Toronto, as the Maple Leafs struggled to reach the Stanley Cup Finals.

In 1982, Sittler was famously traded to the Philadelphia Flyers in a blockbuster deal. While his time in Philadelphia was marked by injuries and a lack of postseason success, he continued to be a prolific scorer. He later played for the Detroit Red Wings, Buffalo Sabres, and Chicago Blackhawks before retiring in 1989.

Sittler's impact extends beyond his impressive statistics. He was a vocal advocate for players' rights during the early days of the NHL Players' Association (NHLPA), playing a significant role in securing better wages and working conditions for athletes.
