miller76 463 Report post Posted August 2, 2009 calgary herald article with Bert I have watched Bertuzzi's whole career. I feel like he has gotten old and mature in front of my very own eyes. So after reading this article, it seems highly doubtful he would return to Detroit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cleary11 0 Report post Posted August 2, 2009 Bertuzzi didn't do much while in Detroit. Was he hurt while he was here, or just sucked? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VM1138 1,921 Report post Posted August 2, 2009 Bertuzzi didn't do much while in Detroit. Was he hurt while he was here, or just sucked? Hurt. Didn't you notice him get considerably better as the year went on? That's the only reason I'm nervous about Bert coming here. It could either work out really well, or he could continue to be hurt and old and slow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted August 2, 2009 I'd be willing to give Bert a chance, but it doesnt sound like he's coming here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drake_Marcus 890 Report post Posted August 2, 2009 The rumour and news guys on Twitter have him linked to a few teams in the east including the Leafs and Islanders. Apparently the Islanders are the surer bet. (Makes sense given the fact that they have like $50.36 in payroll) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miller76 463 Report post Posted August 2, 2009 I am thinking Philadelphia. But I liked Berts honesty in the interview, about how the Flames never made that call or even acted like he was ever a part of that team! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheOwl 77 Report post Posted August 3, 2009 It's sad what happened to his career. He was a legitimate top 6 forward on any team in his prime. Then one mistake with his stick, and he's never recovered from that. He still might have enough in him for a 60 point season though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then one mistake with his stick, and he's never recovered from that. He still might have enough in him for a 60 point season though. in his prime he was legitimate top 3 forward on any team. And the best power forward in the league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
