He delivered a high hit on Tampa's defenseman Erik Cernak, earning himself a match penalty. Now, Bunting also has to serve a three-game suspension for an illegal check to the head and interference. Toronto lost Game 1 7-3 and Bunting's suspension is a further blow to the team's chances in the series. He will be eligible to turn to the lineup for a potential Game 5. Calle Jarnkrok was promoted to Bunting's spot on the first line in Wednesday's practice.
