Gardiner was a healthy scratch for Saturday's game against the Flyers.

Analysis:

With just eight points and a minus-11 rating in 30 games, Gardiner has been mostly a letdown for the Leafs this season. He's probably too talented to stick in the press box for long, but perhaps the healthy scratch will serve as a wake-up call for the blueliner. He was replaced in Saturday's lineup by Korbinian Holzer.
