Max Pacioretty is a healthy scratch for the second game in a row for the Toronto Maple Leafs .

The veteran forward has scored once in his first three games with Toronto .

He signed a one-year , $ 873,770 US contract with the Maple Leafs on Oct. 7 .

Coach Craig Berube says he made a decision to bench him after three games.

The Leafs held their morning skate at their facility in Etobicoke , and not at Scotiabank Arena like they always do, because of road closures downtown on Saturday morning for a marathon.

Timothy Liljegren will be scratched after making his season debut against the Kings .

Anthony Stolarz is expected to start in goal for Toronto .
