Quinn died Sunday at age 71 after battling health problems.

Quinn played two seasons with the Maple Leafs from 1968 to 1970. He later returned to Toronto and coached the Leafs from 1998 to 2006.

The Maple Leafs won 300 games with Quinn behind the bench and reached the playoffs in each of his first six seasons with the team.
