Nylander and Bunting fire shots at each other ahead of tonight's game

On Monday, the NHL's two game slate is highlighted by a showdown between the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Toronto Maple Leafs. The game is already high-stakes giving playoff seedings and a playoff spot on the line, but it's also a chance for Michael Bunting to return to Toronto with his new team.

Ahead of what should be a fun, competitive showdown, William Nylander took a funny shot at his former teammate, with Bunting, who left as a free agent for Carolina in the summer responding.

Despite some issues, it's clear that Bunting is beloved by teammates, and while it's great to see him joking around with Nylander, when the puck drops on Monday night, things will get very serious. Right now, the Maple Leafs are locked into a playoff spot, but will still look for a big win against a red-hot Penguins team that find themselves needing to win to stay above many teams in the Eastern Conference playoff race.
