I remember that January day back in 1992 when Cliff Fletcher made the biggest trade in NHL history (10 Players involved).. Sending guys like Leeman (former 50 goal scorer), Michel Petit, and 3 others.. In return the Leafs got Gilmour, Jamie Macoun, and 3 others.. What a deal.. Leeman would never come close to regaining the scoring touch he showed only 2 years earlier... Gilmour on the other hand would turn into one (if not the best) player in the league for the next 2-3 seasons... Helping the Leafs to Semi-Finals twice... Only to be screwed by a bad call in game 6 against LA and Wayne Gretzky in 1993.. Maybe cost them the Stanley Cup.
Here is a little video that pays tribute to killer.. A true Leaf.. Tonight they raise Dougie's number 93 to the top of the Air Canada - Thanks Dougie!
