EDGE Analysis
Even his regular line mate Auston Matthews was held off the score sheet Saturday. Bunting remains a solid secondary fantasy scorer despite the small slump. The Leafs' offense is so good that almost anyone can score.

Bunting notched an assist and fired five shots on goal in Friday's 4-1 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Bunting set up Auston Matthews' second-period goal. During a three-game point streak, Bunting has a goal and three assists. The 26-year-old winger is up to 12 points, 46 shots, 25 hits and 14 PIM in 22 contests.
