BREAKING: Kyle Dubas Makes a Shocking Decision Regarding Michael Bunting
Coming off of a three-game suspension, the Leafs had the opportunity to re-add Michael Bunting to the lineup. It appears they don't care, however.
Bunting to Be Healthy Scratched
While it is never an easy decision to bring a player back after a massive suspension, Michael Bunting has been stapled to the Leafs' top-six for nearly two years.
However, there is no nepotism with Sheldon Keefe, as Bunting will seemingly be healthy scratched tonight.
Michael Bunting is eligible to return from suspension in Game 5, but based on practice he projects to be a healthy scratch for the first time as a Leaf
The emergence of Matthew Knies has made this a much easier decision than Keefe probably anticipated. The Leafs have looked fantastic without wild card Bunting!
Here is the projected lineup:
Järnkrok � Matthews � Nylander
Knies � Tavares � Marner
Kerfoot � O'Reilly � Acciari
Aston-Reese � Kämpf � Lafferty
Knies � Tavares � Marner
Kerfoot � O'Reilly � Acciari
Aston-Reese � Kämpf � Lafferty
We will have to wait and see if this is the right decision. If it is, we'll be having another conversation ahead of round 2!
