New Maple Leaf left winger Tyler Bertuzzi could be the perfect fit with Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner, especially in playoffs.
Swapping Bertuzzi for the departed Michael Bunting, who was prime time on left wing with Matthews and Marner much of the past two seasons, could be a fixture from Day One of camp this week or a fall back after other experiments. Eventually it will be too attractive for Keefe to pass up.
