Maple Leafs' Bernier admits to pain in his previously injured knee

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Jonathan Bernier surrendered an ugly goal to the Montreal Canadiens early in the Leafs' home opener Wednesday night. Bernier allowed four goals total, and admitted he wasn't 100 percent to media Thursday morning.

"Sometimes I feel a little pinch in my knee, but I have nothing to worry about," he said on a TSN Radio 1050 update.

Bernier underwent sports hernia surgery in May, and nursed a MCL injury late last season that kept him out for the final three weeks.
