Maple Leafs Head Coach Sheldon Keefe reveals one huge lineup change is coming up
Most of the Toronto Maple Leafs goals come from unsurprising players. Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner and William Nylander are all keeping the Leafs at the top. However, the team needs more from depth players to support the stars.
One of those players who definitely needs to do more is Tyler Bertuzzi.
Sheldon Keefe Shares Interesting Development on Bertuzzi
Sheldon Keefe talked about Bertuzzi's line in his pre-game comments ahead of tonight's matchup against the Colorado Avalanche. He had surprisingly good words for his line, with William Nylander and John Tavares, who'll remain intact for tonight's game.
Earlier in the season, it didn't work out too well for Bertuzzi with other Leafs' star Auston Matthews. However, Keefe shared his thoughts on the matter, explaining Bertuzzi's underwhelming performances.
Bertuzzi to Get Major Opportunities In Coming Months
In 39 games this season, Bertuzzi only managed to score 18 points, including six goals. This places him at eighth spot among the Leafs' scorers, behin Calle Jarkrok, Max Domi and Morgani Rielly.
If the Leafs hope to make it far into the playoffs, they'll need more from him.
In order to get the best out of him, Sheldon Keefe announced that he'll get many opportunities until the end of the season to see what works better for him.
