shdwx14 7 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 I don't think that Bert has been playing like he has for us a bit ago. He just doesn't seem to be the same. He's not going to the net too hard and not having too many hits. My friends a nd family are all over me about his play since I'm a huge Bertuzzi fan and I just want to know if there is anything wrong with him. I hear that Calder may have a broken hand and that Bertuzzi may be playing with an injury too, but does anyont know what it is? I'm not expecting him to be the hero of the playoffs or series, but he looks like somethings not right. At first he started a lil slow but he was then hitting a lot, now he might have one big hit it seems a game. I really hope he gets better and we can resign him to see him play his A game, even if it's not what it was in Vancouver. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Imagine, if my aunt Pamela had balls, Id call her uncle Peter. C'mon, we have at least 7 injuries that have been lingering and guess what? You dont know about them or hear about them because we play through them. 2 play on the same line that has dominated this series. Kunitz and Thornton will play through as well, that will ring the total to 9 men playing through pain for one goal. You can cry and make ifs and buts or you can step up for the Cup.

Well except for last night, right? And Thorton only got 2 mins total in 3-1/2 periods... so he isn't exactly haveing to play through much.

Offsides 21 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 The fact is that even if you can't use injuries as an excuse they DO impact the game. Depending on the extent and nature of the injury you will 1) not play 2) play but not well or 3) play and not be overly affected by it. Schneider isn't playing because of his injury but I'm not going to rag on him because he shouldn't have an excuse. All of the guys who are playing injured are valiant in my opinion, but if it gets to the point they are a liability out there they should be sat. Right now I'm guessing that Babs figures that an injured Calder or Bert must be a greater asset in than out, so they are playing...I guess we'll see what happens.

Guest jaytan Report post Posted May 14, 2007 Of course he's injured. He's been hurt for pretty much the entire season. His back's injured, and he's still healing from a concussion. Not excusing him, just letting you know why he may not be looking as great as we all know he can be. We should definitely re-sign him in the offseason, no matter what transpires in the remainder of the playoffs. Bert is one of the most dominating players in the game when he's on, and he's still a force even when he's injured. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dw185 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2007 yeah, don't forget that bert was pretty dang cheap. It will take a lot to make the initial move in acquiring him look bad. As for calder, i agree. i haven't seen much out of him and it appears that hudler might serve the team better right now, but i'm not the coach, and i'm not the one watching these guys practice day in and day out. I'll leave that stuff to babcock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

#19forPresident! 1 Report post Posted May 15, 2007 Well he does look off in my opinon, not sure if its dusting off the cobwebs, typical nagging playoff injuires, or if its something more. We all know everyone plays hurt to a certain extent this time of year, so I'm sure someone coming off of a recent back rehab is feeling the pain game in and game out if anybody is. How serious is he hurting? Your guess is as good as mine, I haven't heard anything confirmed, but if it was something huge we'd know about it obviously. Then again Crosby played the last 2 weeks of the season and the first round with a broken foot, and Calder has played with a broken hand supposedly, so everyone's definition of serious is a little different .
