The1992–93Toronto Maple Leafs season was Toronto's 76th season in theNational Hockey League (NHL).

Off-season

[edit]

Head coachTom Watt was fired on May 4.[1] Watt remained with the organization as director of player development.[1]

On May 29,Montreal Canadiens head coachPat Burns quit that role in order to sign a four-year contract to become Toronto's new head coach.[2]

Regular season

[edit]

The 1992–93 season was a triumph for the Maple Leafs. It saw them set franchise records in wins (44) and points (99). Twenty-one-year-old goaltenderFelix Potvin played his first full season with the team and was solid with a 25–15–7 record, a 2.50goals against average (GAA), two shutouts and a .910 save percentage. In a season that saw 20 of 24 teams average more than three goals scored per game, the Maple Leafs goaltending was one of the best in the NHL, allowing only 241 goals in 84 games (only theChicago Blackhawks allowed fewer goals than Toronto). The Maple Leafs also had a strong defence corps, anchored byDave Ellett,Todd Gill,Sylvain Lefebvre,Jamie Macoun,Dmitri Mironov andBob Rouse. Out of all 24 teams, the Maple Leafs allowed the fewest power-play goals in the regular season (69). NewcomersDave Andreychuk andDaren Puppa also played very well. In just 31 games with the Leafs, Andreychuk scored 25 goals and had 13 assists for 38 points. Puppa won six out of eight games, had a 2.25 GAA, two shutouts and a .922 save percentage. RookieNikolai Borschevsky led the team in goals with 34 and would score a very important goal in the first round of the playoffs against theDetroit Red Wings; Borschevsky deflectedBob Rouse's shot 2:35 into the first overtime period of Game 7 atJoe Louis Arena to give the Leafs a 4–3 win and a four-games-to-three series win.

Doug Gilmour

[edit]

Doug Gilmour had a career year in 1992–93. He had a franchise-record 127 points during the 1992–93 regular season and ranked eighth in NHL scoring.[3] In the playoffs, he played a key role as the Leafs took out the powerhouse Detroit Red Wings andSt. Louis Blues, both in seven games. Gilmour finished the playoffs with 35 points, behind onlyWayne Gretzky. Gilmour was the runner-up for theHart Memorial Trophy as regular season MVP and won theFrank J. Selke Trophy as best defensive forward, the first major NHL award that a Leaf player had won since 1967.

One of Gilmour's most memorable goals[according to whom?] was scored during the 1993 second round playoffs series against the St. Louis Blues, in the second sudden death overtime period. Many fans remember him skating back and forth behind the St. Louis net multiple times before finally sliding the puck behind a sprawlingCurtis Joseph. The Maple Leafs would go on to win the series, but would eventually be eliminated in the next round by Wayne Gretzky and theLos Angeles Kings. Toronto was leading the Conference series against Los Angeles 3–2 and many fans were hoping for an all-Canadian final as theMontreal Canadiens already advanced. However, during overtime of Game 6, Gretzky high-sticked Gilmour, drawing blood, without being assessed a penalty by the referee,Kerry Fraser, and then scored the winning goal moments later to stave off elimination. During game seven back atMaple Leaf Gardens, the Leafs were trailing 5–3 after Gretzky completed hishat-trick. The Maple Leafs scored one goal but could not find the equalizer, which sent the Kings to the1993 Stanley Cup Finals.

Off-ice issues

[edit]

Off the ice, the often-bitter debate surrounding beer sales at Maple Leaf Gardens reached a climax. By 1992, beer had been sold for over a decade at major outdoor venues such asExhibition Stadium and theSkyDome, but this policy did not extend to Maple Leaf Gardens, which by 1992 was one of only two major professional sports venues in North America (the other being theDelta Center inSalt Lake City) where all alcohol sales were banned.

After the expansionOttawa Senators were able to secure a liquor licence for theOttawa Civic Centre, Maple Leafs management lobbied heavily to be permitted the same, promising strict protocols would be enforced. Despite fierce opposition from some municipal politicians such as CouncillorKay Gardner,Toronto City Council ultimately voted in favour. Following provincial approval, the first beer was sold at Maple Leaf Gardens on January 30, 1993 (10½ years to the day afterthe first beer had been sold at Exhibition Stadium).

Playoffs

[edit]

Norris Division Semifinals: Detroit vs. Toronto

[edit]

In a revival of the heatedOriginal Six rivalry,Nikolai Borschevsky's Game 7 overtime goal gave Toronto the series. This was also Toronto's first playoff win over Detroit since the Leafs beat the Wings in the full seven games back in the1964 Stanley Cup Finals.

Norris Division Finals: Toronto vs. St. Louis

[edit]

The Maple Leafs defeated the Blues in seven games to win the Norris Division playoffs, despite Blues' goaltenderCurtis Joseph's efforts. The Blues were heavily outshot throughout the series including more than 60 shots in game one alone. Game 7 was the first to be played at Maple Leaf Gardens since the 1964 Cup Finals whenAndy Bathgate scored the cup clinching goal.

Conference Finals: Toronto vs. Los Angeles

[edit]

This exciting and very heated seven-game series has long been remembered by hockey fans. TheToronto Maple Leafs iced a highly competitive team for the first time in years and were hoping to break their 26-year Stanley Cup drought; they had not even been to the Cup Finals since their last Cup win in1967. TheLos Angeles Kings, led by captainWayne Gretzky, also had high ambitions. During Game 1 (a dominating victory for the Leafs) Los Angeles blue-linerMarty McSorley delivered a serious open ice hit on Toronto'sDoug Gilmour. Leafs captainWendel Clark took exception to the hit and went after McSorley for striking their star player. Toronto coachPat Burns tried scaling the bench to get at Los Angeles coachBarry Melrose because he thought he ordered the hit on Gilmour (McSorley later remarked in interviews that he received dozens ofdeath threat messages on his hotel phone from angry fans). Toronto would take a 3–2 series lead after five games. Game 6 went back west to theGreat Western Forum in Los Angeles; it too was not without controversy and was also decided on an overtime goal. During the 1992–93 season, there was a league-wide crackdown onHigh-Sticking infractions, whether they were accidental or not. In Game 6, Gilmour was part of controversy once again. With the game tied at 4 in overtime, Wayne Gretzky clipped him in the face with the blade of his stick, drawing blood. Everyone thought that refereeKerry Fraser should have called a penalty on the play, but Gretzky was not penalized, and he went on to score the overtime goal moments later, evening the series at 3–3. He would score three goals in the deciding game to give Los Angeles a berth in theStanley Cup Finals for the first time in franchise history and also the first time the Kings win a playoff series against anOriginal Six team. Gretzky has been quoted as saying that his performance in Game 7 was the best NHL game of his career.[1]
