cr00d 26 Report post Posted February 27, 2007 Hey guys, I was just watching TSN, and Bob Mckenzie believes Big Bert will be traded before the trade deadline, to either Detroit, NY, or Anaheim. Also, important to note, he figures it will more then likely be a "soft deal" due to the fact that he hasn't played since October. Deal could include "A mid to low prospect or roster player, and a mid round pick". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Majsheppard 203 Report post Posted February 27, 2007 With the addition of Calder Bert makes the most sense, he really does. I don't see Blake being an option, and everything else sounds too expensive. I am pissed we missed Smolinski, if we managed to get him with Calder we could have moved Lang and picked up more. Now the only way to get another center is pay out the arse for it. The options are getting smaller, and I don't think that all this sitting on the sidelines waiting for prices to come down to overpay for someone. I am confident this group can win though. So we shall see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agalloch Report post Posted February 27, 2007 I love Bertuzzi. Even if he has lost every ability he once had because of his injury (I know he hasn't, I'm just saying), I'd still want him because of things like this: That's awesome. How many people can do that to Dion Phaneuf? He's going to come cheap, so I'd love it. I've always liked Bertuzzi, even since the Moore incident. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aki 0 Report post Posted February 27, 2007 Bertuzzi is at most worth a 2nd and a conditional draft pick. I don't really know if I want him here or not. If he can score when he returns, then that great, otherwise it'll be a big disappointment and there'll be lots of bitching here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats probably the only reason we'd pick him up , imagine Betr doing that in the playoffs and the passes the puck to Zetterberg in double OT and he scores , we move on to the SCF. Yeah i can dream Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Majsheppard 203 Report post Posted February 27, 2007 (edited) Seriously, should Kenny take the chance? He has to save face after this crappy Calder trade. Oh and how the hell is the Calder trade crappy? I'm pretty sure he'll be back in a week or two. I think he would play the first night he is asked to.

Offsides 21 Report post Posted February 27, 2007 Well we got Kyle Calder which is WAY OVER our limit of trades, so I doubt we'll get him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdog19 0 Report post Posted February 27, 2007 There is absolutely no reason not to acquire this guy. The upside is limitless, and the downside is he doesn't play. Virtually zero risk, high reward...how can you not like that? (editors note: I realize I'm equating a prospect/draft pick as 'no downside', but it's more effective to emphasize it like that! ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wings_Rule_1010 4 Report post Posted February 27, 2007 I just read on TSN.com that the Wings are listed as the lead runners to acquire Bertuzzi. I wonder if there is any truth to that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theman19 47 Report post Posted February 27, 2007 it wasn't too long ago that this man was a pure goalscorer and the most dominate power forward in the league (please please please,..lets not aruge about the defintion of power forward again shall we?) He's exactly the kind of guy we need in Detroit that we havn't had in years. Guys like cleary but on a more skilled level, who know there career is in the toilette and this might be there last shot at playing with a respectable team. Men with nothing to lose, and everything to prove are very very dangerous. I think he'd destroy people if he wore the red and white. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
