Does Tuukka Rask count since he drafted by them 21st overall in 2005 or did these players need to actually play in a game with the Leafs?

Who could forget Leafs legend Olaf Kolzig

It's a toss up between him and Robin Lehner for GOAT Leaf goalies in my opinion.

Carter Ashton

Really had to eat crow with this guy. I was going to a lot of Marlies games at the time and loved watching him play.

0 goals in 54 NHL games. Is that good?

 

[Arthur Morgan]

Luca Caputi

Robbie Earl

Nathan Dempsey - as a kid I could never figure out why he couldn’t get more time with the Leafs...

 

[67Cup]

Gerry James... obscure and forgotten Leaf but an interesting story

He did something I am sure will never be repeated. He played in the Grey Cup game in the afternoon and in an NHL game for the Leafs later that same evening, November 30, 1957.

I can remember him from his last Leafs season, 1959-60. He was a marginal NHLer at best, though it was the original six, after all. Nobody else has ever played in the Grey Cup and the Stanley Cup finals, in the same season, as he did that year. But he was a top football player, winning four Grey Cups with the Blue Bombers and twice named Most Outstanding Canadian in the CFL.

The second of those two awards was presented on November 29, 1957. Quite the sports weekend!

I'll start the thread off with John Pohl.

Matt Martin . No not him . The other Matt Martin

He has the same number of NHL goals as any poster on this board, but his goal scoring efficiency in the NHL is worse than any of ours.

So you're saying that all HF posters should have played at least 54 NHL games?

Brit Selby. Last leaf to win the Calder before matthews, and my former history teacher

 

[Kiwi]

Lorne Stamler

 

[hobarth]

Zdenek Nedved-played for the Leafs in the mid '90s, scored an amazing goal in his 2nd game roofing the puck from in close, unfortunately he wasn't meant to be and since Nedved is a common Czeck name he wasn't related to Peter nor did he have any of Peter's talent.

Alex Suglobov - clueless floater

 

[DitchMarner]

Seriously?

 

[DitchMarner]

Alex Suglobov - clueless floater

lol... that guy was utterly useless in the NHL.

Such a disappointing return for the legendary Ken Klee.

 

[justashadowof]

Sergei Berezin - not a clueless floater, an exciting player who would score even though everyone knew what he was going do once the puck was on his stick, every career assist probably touched the goalie first
