Beyond those already mentioned (Gilmour, Broda) how about
Lorne Chabot 1928-29 - 11SO in 43 games he played
Ian Turnbull  1976-77 - 22 goals 57 assists, 79 points and +47 in 80 games, best offensive numbers for a Leafs defenceman ever
Dave Keaon 1970-71 - his best offensive season for Toronto 38goals and 38 assists for 76 points, but consider this - 8 SHG, 9 GWG, +24
One of our only 50 goal scores should make the list: Dave Andreychuk 1993-94 - 53 goals, Rick Vaive achieved this actually 3 times in 1981-81 (54), 1982-83 (52) and 1983-84 (51) and Gary Leeman in 1989-90 (51). I personally would give a nod to Rick Vaive.

the 92-93 was not the start of good goalies... it is the highest scoreing season on record.  14 or 15 players had 50+ goals...  i would think teemu having 76 goals in his rookie year would be more surprising then marios totals seeing what mario had for a support cast and all.

I didn't say it was the start of the improved goaltending, just that it was coming on. Goalies like Belfour and Cujo and Roy and Potvin and Richter and so on were in the league.

It's also, to my mind, got a pretty good case for being the year where the league was the deepest. There were still a relatively low number of teams but the fall of communism and the increased acceptance of Europeans probably made for as talented a league as had ever been.
