Well, I strongly disagree with your stong disagreement.
Vrabel doesn't attend OTA's. He doesn't attend mini-camps. If he was a TRUE leader in the locker room, he wouldn't miss a session.
Furthermore, he won't be there when the young players and rookies are there, so how can you definte that as "elite leadership"?
