The Toronto Maple Leafs bounced back from their recent loss to the Philadelphia Flyers with a commanding 7-3 victory over the Washington Capitals.
However, the absence of forward Tyler Bertuzzi in the early stages of the game caught the attention of fans. Despite his delayed start, Bertuzzi eventually contributed to the win with a goal in the third period.
Head coach Sheldon Keefe shed light on Bertuzzi's situation post-game, citing illness as the reason for his late appearance.
Unfortunately, Bertuzzi's condition hasn't improved, forcing him to miss practice the following day.

Keefe expressed concern, stating that Bertuzzi's status for the next game against the Edmonton Oilers is uncertain due to worsening symptoms.

Despite initial uncertainties surrounding his contract, he opted for a one-year deal with the Leafs.
As he navigates through his health challenges, Bertuzzi's future with the team remains a topic of interest as he approaches unrestricted free agency.
