McCabe notched two assists in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Mammoth.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran blueliner has remarkably put together a four-game point streak, and he's erupted for a goal and six points over the last six contests despite not having a spot on either of Toronto's usual power-play units. McCabe has never produced more than 28 points in an NHL season (eight goals, 20 assists over 73 regular-season games in 2023-24), so his sudden surge of offense isn't likely to last.

McCabe scored a goal in a 5-2 win over the Flyers on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
McCabe lofted a shot from the center of the blue line that went in through a screen at 8:14 of the second period. It pushed the score to 2-1 in favor of the Leafs. He has three points (one goal, two assists) in his last four games, but he may be focused on more shutdown situations in the near future after Chris Tanev (upper body) was stretchered off the ice Saturday.

McCabe scored a goal, dished an assist, logged three hits, blocked three shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
McCabe opened the scoring at 8:42 of the first period and then helped out on a William Nylander empty-netter late in the third. These were McCabe's first two points of the season, but he's been as reliable as ever in his own zone. He's posted a plus-6 rating, eight blocks and six hits to provide decent non-scoring production. McCabe looks to be a lock for top-four minutes as a shutdown blueliner. He's topped 20 points in each of the last four seasons, which gives him appeal in deeper fantasy formats.

McCabe notched an assist and blocked three shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Senators in Game 4.
EDGE Analysis
The helper was McCabe's first point in four playoff contests. The 31-year-old blueliner has added 11 blocks, three hits, two shots on net and a plus-2 rating. He missed the last seven games of the regular season due to an upper-body injury, but he's had no trouble stepping back into a top-four role during postseason play. McCabe had 23 points, 118 hits, 135 blocks and a plus-23 rating over 66 regular-season outings, so he'll fill more of a shutdown role in the playoffs.

McCabe (upper body) will return to the lineup Sunday in Game 1 versus Ottawa, Mark Masters of TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
After missing the final seven games of the regular season, McCabe practiced alongside Chris Tanev on Saturday. The 31-year-old McCabe had two goals, 21 assists, 74 shots on goal, 118 hits and 135 blocked shots across 66 regular-season appearances in 2024-25.

McCabe (upper body) has been ruled out for Thursday's regular-season finale against the Red Wings, Luke Fox of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
Although McCabe will miss a seventh consecutive game to close out the regular season, head coach Craig Berube said Thursday that he's "very confident" that the 31-year-old defenseman will be available for Game 1 of the Maple Leafs' first-round playoff series. McCabe made 66 appearances during the regular season, racking up two goals, 21 assists, 135 blocked shots, 118 hits and 40 PIM while averaging 21:31 of ice time.

McCabe (upper body) hasn't been ruled out yet for Toronto's regular-season finale versus Detroit on Thursday, Mark Masters of TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
McCabe will miss his sixth straight game versus Buffalo on Tuesday, and he could be out for the team's regular-season finale if the Maple Leafs err on the side of caution. McCabe has accumulated two goals, 23 points, 74 shots on net, 135 blocked shots and 118 hits through 66 appearances this season.

McCabe (undisclosed) won't be an option versus Buffalo on Tuesday, Mark Masters of TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
McCabe will be shelved for his sixth straight game due to his lingering undisclosed injury. At this point, the 31-year-old blueliner should be considered questionable not only for Thursday's regular-season finale against Detroit but also for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. With Oliver Ekman-Larsson (undisclosed) also out, Toronto will have to give Simon Benoit and Dakota Mermis plenty of minutes down the stretch.

McCabe (undisclosed) is expected to be sidelined for the Leafs' next two outings, David Alter of The Hockey News reports Friday.
EDGE Analysis
McCabe is still expected to return during the regular season, but will have just two games to do so after missing the upcoming two outings. Prior to his absence, the 31-year-old blueliner was contributing offensively with six assists in his last seven outings. Due to Oliver Ekman-Larsson (undisclosed) also being unavailable, the Leafs are expected to roll with five blueliners versus the Habs on Saturday.

McCabe (undisclosed) won't play against Florida on Tuesday and will miss Wednesday's matchup versus Tampa Bay, per Mark Masters of TSN.
EDGE Analysis
McCabe sat out Saturday's 5-0 win over Columbus but participated in Monday's practice. He has accounted for two goals, 23 points, 74 shots on net, 135 blocked shots and 118 hits in 66 appearances this season. With McCabe unavailable until at least Saturday against Montreal, Brandon Carlo and Oliver Ekman-Larsson will likely see increased roles.
