Former Bruin kicked to the curb following Leafs organization decision
A former Boston Bruins player seems to be getting kicked to the curb following an organizational decision by the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Tyler Bertuzzi ended up leaving the Boston Bruins in the off-season signing a one-year $5.5 million deal with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
It seems like the Leafs organization might be kicking him to the curb after being eliminated from the playoffs, and prioritizing another UFA in Max Domi.
As reported by Mapleleafsdaily, it seems like if they can only pick one between Tyler Bertuzzi and Max Domi, the Leafs will favour Max Domi more as they seem to think he made a bigger impact on the Leafs then Bertuzzi did.
Bertuzzi had 21 goals and 43 points for the Leafs whereas Domi had 9 goals and 47 points. Domi produced a bit more than Bertuzzi but both play the same type of gritty game, and can make a big impact on contending teams.
This makes you wonder if Bertuzzi does decide to test out free agency, if the Bruins will be back in on Bertuzzi or pass considering he did decide to go to the Maple Leafs after leaving the team.
Do you think the Bruins should be interested in Tyler Bertuzzi if he hits the free agent market?
As seen on Mapleleafsdaily - If forced to make a choice, should the Leafs re-sign Max Domi or Tyler Bertuzzi?
