Impressive. The big guy sure has hands.

How long have you had this in your bag of tricks?

Delicious.

They need to start playing "Sweet Georgia Brown" before Bert's next shootout attempt. Meadowlark Lemon would approve.

[Jusek 437]

Just sick. It's funny how lazy he looks and then he just does something like this.

[Guest Shoreline]

Wicked deke.

He used to be a pretty damn good stickhandler -- I must be one of a few who aren't all that surprised.

[FireCaptain 563]

I'm with ya. People have a very short memory..

He calls the goalie "Suzy!" Haha.

Dats, watch out!

[hillbillywingsfan 792]

so yesterday i posted the replay on my FB....and this is what i got from a stupid preds fan..

Todd Bertuzi is old and should probably be suspended for life or maybe even be in jail for what he did to Steve Moore. That's all.

Hillbilly, you should consider the source on that reply.

I daresay someone has been accessing Mr. Datsyuk's magic bag of tricks? You don't really think of Bert doing something like that, do you? But well done!

The Todd has a pretty impressive bag of tricks when it comes to shootouts. Nice goal, there.

You're friends with draperfan on Facebook?

There's no excuse for a guy with those hands and that size to only score 34 goals in the last two seasons combined. And he only missed 1 game in those two seasons.

That's why so many people here call him a lazy floater.

He did it before he even played with Detroit.

I keep trying to tell you all how stupid these Preds fans are!! I'm telling you all I lived there for 5 long and I mean LONG years!! Manyof them have the IQ of a toddler!! But whatever, they will always have failures as sports teams anyway!!

Didn't even make ESPN's top 10 plays. The chose some soccer plays a golf shot and a first baseman sliding to catch a foul ball. Oh and lots of catches in Football, none of which were Calvin Johnson's OT catch from yesterday BTW. (ESPN just LOVES Detroit sports!)

What are the odds if a certain whiny ***** who owns stock in Alieve () made the same shootout move and score, he be plastered all the place on everyone's top plays?

I hear what you're saying, but simply having good hands in a shootout situation doesn't make someone a great goal scorer from game to game.

I've been quite happy with Bert's production the past two season, its no more than I expected. Personally I wish he would go to the net more often like he used to before the lockout and spend a little less time cycling the outside boards.

But it's not just good hands in a shootout. He has good offensive awareness and has always had a lethal shot, whether it be a slapshot or a wristshot. He's got a really good backhand too.

Problem is, that we see occasional flashes of brilliance from him, followed by long cold streaks where he's invisible. He's just too inconsistent for a guy with his skill set and mass. I don't expect him to be putting up close to 100 points like he did in Vancouver, but it's not too much to ask him to show up every night.

Love this song, it's a classic!!

Delicious.

“Just before last shootout he wanted to do that but I don’t know, he chickened out last time so he did it this time," Wings forward Henrik Zetterberg said. "It was fun that the puck went in.”

I agree.
