On Sunday, during a game between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Nashville Predators, head coach Sheldon Keefe expressed his frustration with Michael Bunting's behavior on the ice. When Bunting returned to the bench, Keefe confronted him about his behavior, but Bunting refused to acknowledge him and even appeared to have rolled his eyes.

As a consequence of this exchange, Bunting was benched for the remainder of the game. It's believed to have been caused when Bunting decided to throw a couple shoves to his opponent in defense of his teammate, Keefe was more worried about a penalty being drawn. The incident was captured on video and shared on social media, causing some controversy among fans and media outlets.
