Clarke MacArthur of the Toronto Maple Leafs called him "the heart and soul" of their team on Tuesday night. On Wednesday, the Leafs learned that they'll be without the services of their captain, Dion Phaneuf, for four to six weeks after a deep leg laceration from the skate of Ottawa's Peter Regin forced him out of the lineup.
