    MCCABE TRADE TO PANTHERS TO BE MADE OFFICIAL TUESDAY

    Sources tell TSN the anticipated trade that would send veteran Toronto Maple Leafs defenceman Bryan McCabe to the Florida Panthers will be made official by 11am et on Tuesday.
    The deal was held up while the Panthers waited for the Leafs to pay a $2 million bonus due to McCabe on Sept. 1.
    With the payout, McCabe, 33, will earn $4.15 million in each of the final three seasons of the five-year, $29 million contract he signed with Toronto in 2006.
    The Maple Leafs will receive defenceman Mike Van Ryn in exchange for McCabe and a draft pick.
    In order to complete the deal, McCabe had to waive his no-movement clause.
