The Top 10 Mustaches in Toronto Maple Leafs History

6. Leo Komarov

The man known as Uncle Leo was a fan favorite with the Maple Leafs. Leo Komarov was even more beloved when he grew a strong horseshoe mustache. The only problem with that beautiful creature was that it didn’t last long enough. It seemed that the crumb catcher disappeared as quickly as it arrived. Komarov played five seasons with the Toronto Maple Leafs. He even split time in 2012-13 between the Toronto Marlies and Moscow Dynamo in the KHL. Komarov represented the Leafs at the 2016 All-Star Game.

5. Wendel Clark

When most people think about a Toronto Maple Leafs player with a horseshoe mustache, they aren’t thinking about Komarov. Instead, the person who generally comes to mind is Wendel Clark. He happens to be the second captain and first overall draft pick on this list.

Clark played 13 seasons with the Leafs getting into 608 games. In that time he recorded 260 goals, 181 assists for a total of 441 points. He did it all with his signature push broom above his lip.

The reason that Leafs fans fell in love with Clark and continue to cheer him on with vigor each time he shows up to Scotiabank arena is because of the way he played the game. He was never afraid to go into the corners, mix it up with the competition, and drop the mitts when called upon. Clark was as tough as they come when he played. It could be why he and his ‘stache spent 1690 penalty minutes in the box throughout his career.
