from the Toronto Sun,
O’Neill pined for the chance to return to the lineup last night for the Leafs’ huge tilt with the Carolina Hurricanes, his former team.
The fact that he wasn’t, O’Neill said, is an indication of how much his stock may have fallen.
“Obviously I’m very disappointed,” he said. “It lets you know where you stand when you can’t crack the lineup at this point in the season.
“I think it’s a disappointing situation. I think with the (diminishing) minutes I’ve played, I’ve been a pretty solid contributor. (Sitting out) is not where I want to be.
“It’s obvious I’m not happy but (coach Paul Maurice) decided to go with other guys. Let’s just leave it at that.”
