The curse of Jim Pappin? Leafs haven't won a Cup since 'fluke' goal in '67


Other than Bill Barilko's goal in 1951, it's hard to recall who scored the other Stanley Cup goals for the Leafs. "You never could have imagined that, 50 years later, it would be the last time the Leafs won the Stanley Cup. For five seasons in a row, he celebrated championships, beginning with the 1963-64 Stanley Cup and followed up with back-to-back AHL Calder Cups in 1964-65 and 1965-66, another Stanley Cup and a final Calder Cup in 1967-68. Though he's most known for his Cup-winner for the Leafs, Pappin (8) considers his time with the Blackhawks the pinnacle of his career. After he was traded to Chicago, he gave his 1967 Stanley Cup ring to his then father-in-law, Peter Kyrzakos.
