“Pointer should be in tonight. But, again, the forward is probably another game time, but I hope he will be alright,” the HC said.

Brayden left with an injury in Game 3 on Saturday when Maple Leafs’ Morgan Rielly crushed him into the boards, and that caused a fight between the 2 franchises.

Point left the match carefully but then arrived again on the ice, but Toronto won 4-3 after OT.

The Bolts’ forward had 7 shots in Game 3 on Saturday for almost 25 minutes.
