After playing for the New York Islanders, Vancouver Canucks and Chicago Blackhawks, Bryan McCabe arrived in Toronto where his game reached a much higher level. Already a good defenceman, McCabe took on more offensive facets to his game and he would have three seasons with the Buds where he scored 50 or more Points. In the 2003-04 season he finished fourth in Norris Trophy voting with a Second Team All Star selection. McCabe never won a Stanley Cup, but he was a World Hockey Champion with Canada in 1997 and was good enough to be chosen for the Canadian Olympic Team in 2006.
