OT, but just to add another little angle to the playoff comparison, gilmour was also a very good playoff performer in the 80s, while yzerman really just had the one good playoff run in '87.
gilmour's blues faced yzerman's red wings twice. the first time, they were both rookies and the blues won the series 3-1. hockey-reference doesn't seem to have the box scores and i have no recollection of this series, though gilmour was the blues' leading scorer that playoffs and yzerman got his points in the four game series.
in their second meeting, yzerman was injured and his wings won 4-1. again, without looking at box scores for that series, gilmour put up fantastic numbers over the two rounds his team played.
