Morris Leslie Robinson (born May 29, 1957) is a retired Canadian professional ice hockey defenceman who played in one National Hockey League game for the Montreal Canadiens during the 1979–80 NHL season. 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. Moe Robinson's one NHL game came in Winnipeg on December 15, 1979, as he skated a half dozen shifts in a 6-2 road loss in the Canadiens' first ever meeting with the Winnipeg Jets which were then recently refugeed from the defunct WHA. The only time that the Robinson brothers were ever paired together on the blueline in Habs' uniforms was in a 1979 exhibition game against the Philadelphia Flyers.
