In 2005, Rabbit was drafted in the fifth round of the entry draft by the Boston Bruins. Prior to that he played for the AHL’s affiliate Providence.

During the years of 2008-2009’, Rabbit began to progress statistically. Although netting 74 penalty minutes and 16 goals in ‘08-09, he still felt as though he was incapable of making it with the Boston Bruins.

At this point, Rabbit’s contract was up, so he was given the option of walking away. Although he wanted to continue playing for the Boston Bruins, he didn’t feel suited, considering Boston was a pretty talented team. After leaving the Bruins, Rabbit was offered a good opportunity, with a well paying salary; playing for Nashville. Not being able to give up the Nashville’s offer, he decided to sign with them.[1]
