None of them deserve to be in the HOF like Mogilny. The fact that he has been shunned is a travesty.
Looooovvveed Moligny. It is a travesty.
Went from hating Leaf killer Mogilny with the Devils to loving him in the blink of an eye when Quinn (peace be with him) got him as a UFA.
Just a brilliant turnaround: bring in the guy who kills you all the time and let him kill everyone else.
Quinn was a genius….

He was so clutch in the playoffs for the Leafs during his three full seasons here. He wasn’t a regular season only player or garbage time compiler- in the postseason, he really made his mark when it counted. A true gamebreaker with talent, skill, character and hatred of losing in his veins. He didn’t play for Toronto that long but he left us so many unforgettable memories.
He scored twice in game 7 against the islanders( including the empty netter that clinched the series for us )

He scored in Game 1 of the hurricanes series(2002 ECF)

Unfortunately many Leafs fans only remember about his sloppy giveaway along the boards that got intercepted by Josef vasicek behind the net. Then Vacisek made the pass to Gélinas who was in the front of the net and the latter scored on Cujo and eliminated the Leafs in game 6 of the 2002 ECF. But without his clutch time heroics, the leafs would never have went this far.
He had a Hat trick in game 1 of the 2003 flyers /leafs first round playoff series.

And in 2002-03 he was Toronto’s leading scorer, the only time during the sundin era that a forward other than sundin led the Maple Leafs in scoring(both in goals and assists) by the way, he was also the Leafs playoff leading scorer.

He had two clutch assists in the 3rd period of game 6 of the 2004 second round series against philly. Flyers led 2-0 for two periods until the midway point of the third, that’s when the leafs rallied and came back to tie the game with goals from Karel Pilar And Mats Sundin. mogilny had two passes on both goals. He was involved in both scoring plays. Look at the game’s scoreboard. Unfortunately it was not enough because Jeremy roenick scored on a 2 on 1 with Tony Amonte to send Philly to the conference finals. No one knew that night that it would be the last Leafs playoff game in the second round for nearly two decades.
