This time tomorrow morning, we'll have a solution to the "[Tomas Kaberle](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54289/Tomas%5FKaberle?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Affair". I'm not even going to bother trying to think up anything clever or witty for today's FTB. We all know today is about one guy. If this is his last day as a Leaf, I feel we should take a look back and reflect on what exactly Kaberle has contributed to this organization over the past eleven seasons.

Drafted 204th overall in the 1996 NHL entry draft.

820 career games played.

80 goals, 402 assists, +27.

77 career playoff games.

6 goals, 22 career playoff assists.

4 time NHL All-Star (2002, 2007, 2008, 2009)

3 time Olympian for the Czech Republic.

Second highest scoring defenseman in [Maple Leafs](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/toronto-maple-leafs?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) history.

Some video highlights and your Sunday links after the jump...

Game 3, 2003 Eastern Conference Quarterfinals. Remember when Kaberle used to jump into the rush like this?

Proof that Kaberle *can* play defense.

A tribute to #15 (yes, I chose this specifically for the music. Turn those speakers UP)

And, of course, today's FTB wouldn't be complete without the Tomas Kaberle Song

Let's all drink one for Tomas tonight.
