Tyler Bertuzzi, eyeing unrestricted free agency, leaves the Bruins in need of a cost-effective replacement. That's where Michael Bunting of the Toronto Maple Leafs comes into play.
Bunting recently completed his first full season, exhibiting an impressive performance across 82 games with 23 goals, 26 assists, and a total of 49 points. While Bunting shares a similar playing style with Bertuzzi, it's hard to deny that his acquisition would be viewed as a downgrade for the Bruins.
It seems increasingly likely that both players won't be donning their respective jerseys for the upcoming season. Could we witness the intriguing scenario of Bertuzzi and Bunting swapping sides in this heated rivalry? Only time will tell.
