Robbie Laird played for the Komets nine seasons and coached them another 4 seasons. It was Laird's hard nosed style of play that earned him his fame. No one could ever accuse Laird of taking a shift off. It was his blue collar work ethic on the ice that made him a Komet legend and earned him a spot in the hall of fame. Laird broke the 100 point plateau during the 1978-79 season with 107 points and ranks 9th on the career assists with 305. Robo as he was nicknamed, ranks 4th on the Komets all-time penalty minute list with 1,298 minutes. Laird on ice work ethic carried over to his coaching style and he ranks second on the Komets career coaching wins with 212. Robbie Laird was inducted to the Komets Hall of Fame in 2002.
