47. Bryan McCabe

Bryan McCabe began his NHL career with the Islanders, Canucks, and Blackhawks, and looked to be moving from promising youngster to credible journeyman.  This would change in 2000 when he was traded again to Toronto for what would be by far his most productive and most extended stay.

McCabe had 29 Points in his first year in Toronto and had 43 the following year after finding a regular role on the power play.  In 2003-04, McCabe had a 53-Point year, and the Defenseman was named a Second Team All-Star and was fourth in Norris voting.  After the lockout, McCabe had a career-high 68 Points in 2005-06, with 57 the following year.  After his production dipped, McCabe was traded to Florida.

As a Maple Leaf, McCabe scored 297 Points with a Plus/Minus of +63.
