Tyler Bertuzzi's Return to Boston Draws Mixed Reactions

During the game, Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Timothy Liljegren found himself in an unfortunate situation, as he was on the receiving end of a troubling slew foot from Brad Marchand. The hit led to Liljegren leaving the game with an injury, sparking questions about why it wasn't penalized.




Liljegren's departure naturally stirred strong emotions among his Maple Leafs teammates, who were not only upset about the lack of a penalty but also concerned for their injured comrade. However, observant fans noticed a different reaction from former Bruin Tyler Bertuzzi.
