Career
Gilmour had an outstanding junior career with the Cornwall Royals . The NHL did not assess his potential for the league so well, and so he was selected in the 1982 NHL Entry Draft in the seventh round as 134th. The St. Louis Blues had secured the rights to him and could enjoy the following season when he ran up in Cornwall to another high performance. In the summer of 1983 he completed a trial training at the Düsseldorfer EG as an alternative to the Russian Viktor Netschajew , but then received a contract with the Blues.
In the 1983/84 season he showed all those who had ignored him in the draft what they had missed. The first three seasons he always managed over 50 points. In 1987 he broke the 100-point mark for the first time and was in the top 5 of the league with 105 points.
After the 1987/88 season there were problems in the private sphere. Allegations by the 14-year-old Gilmours nanny were in the room and so the blues parted quickly with their star. After five years in St. Louis, three and a half successful years with the Calgary Flames followed . Here he won the Stanley Cup in his first season and contributed the decisive goal in the last game of the final series against the Canadiens de Montréal .
In early 1992, the Toronto Maple Leafs brought Gilmour in a large swap deal together with Rick Wamsley and Jamie Macoun from Calgary in order to lead the traditional team back to the top of the league and he met expectations. The 1992/93 season was not only Gilmour's best season, with 127 points it was also the best season that a player had ever played in the Leafs jersey. At the same time he was named the best defensive striker in the league. However, it was not enough for the big hit, in the conference final the Leafs were defeated by the Los Angeles Kings around Wayne Gretzky in seven games. After the end of the strike in the 1994/95 season and a trip to Switzerland to Rapperswil to what is now the Rapperswil-Jona Lakers , he became captain of the Maple Leafs.
Shortly before the end of the season in 1997 he was given to the New Jersey Devils and after another season there, his journey continued to the Chicago Blackhawks . With the Hawks he was allowed to play the last game at Maple Leaf Gardens and it was he who scored the last goal in this game. Further stations were the Buffalo Sabers and the Canadiens de Montréal.
With rumors of Gilmour's retirement piling up, there was good news for Toronto fans. At the 2003 trading deadline, he switched back to the Leafs. On March 13, 2003 he appeared again in the jersey of the Maple Leafs, but injured himself in this game, so it should be his last NHL game. After he had not received an offer from Leafs for the following season, he announced his resignation on September 8, 2003.
In September 2006, the Maple Leafs announced that Gilmour had been hired as a sports advisor to the club. In the 2008/09 season he was initially active as an assistant coach with the Toronto Marlies in the American Hockey League , before Gilmour in November 2008 accepted an offer from the Kingston Frontenacs from the Ontario Hockey League to take over the last unsuccessful Larry Mavety in the role of To replace head coach. The Canadian held this position until the end of the 2010/11 season . The following season he was at the Kingston Frontenacs as general manager, while Todd Gill took over the head coach.
In 2011 he was honored with the induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame .
