The Leafs have a quite poor record with him out of the lineup.
People seem to underestimate his leadership both on and off ice. While he was injured I heard some banter by hockey beat writers in Toronto wondering whether Kaberle was making McCabe better, or based on Kabs struggles without him, perhaps vice versa.
