Morris Leslie Robinson (born May 29, 1957) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey defenceman. He played one game in the National Hockey League with the Montreal Canadiens during the 1979–80 season. The rest of his career, which lasted from 1977 to 1981, was spent in the minor leagues. His brother Larry also played in the NHL with the Canadiens, and is in the Hockey Hall of Fame.
Playing career
Although his Hall of Fame brother Larry Robinson was with the Canadiens at that time, they did not play together as the older Robinson was out injured during Moe's brief recall from the AHL made to replace Larry on the roster.[1] Moe Robinson's one NHL game came in Winnipeg on December 15, 1979, as he played six shifts in a 6-2 road loss in the Canadiens' first game with the Winnipeg Jets which had recently come from the disbanded WHA. The only time that the Robinson brothers were paired together on the blueline with the Canadiens was in a 1979 exhibition game against the Philadelphia Flyers.
