Gardiner assisted on the Leafs' lone goal in Saturday's loss to the Blues. Gardiner saw a team-high 23:44 of ice time in the loss, a surprising development for a player who has disappointed the Leafs with his play this season. While Gardiner has shown that he's capable in the past of providing offense in droves, he's only mustered three points over his last 12 games and is sitting on a minus-23 rating for the season. It probably makes sense to steer clear of using him in mid-sized or shallower formats.
