Oh Todd Bertuzzi, where art thou?
Todd Bertuzzi, the highly-paid thug of the Vancouver Canucks, is a pretty big guy at 6'3" 245lbs. It's amazing how easily he can disappear.
Since the Olympic Break, a tournament in which Bertuzzi did little of anything except watch figure skating, "Bert" has been one of the chief reasons why the Canucks are choking like a Buffalo sports team in the finals of any sport.
11 games, 1 goal, 4 assists, -9, and 12PIM.
Only 1 of his points has come at even strength.
Bertuzzi is now 4th in scoring on the Canucks. FOURTH!!!
His -17 is tied with Markus Naslund for the team's worst, and they are way below anyone else.
Naslund? He hasn't been great, but he's doing a lot more and firing a lot more shots. He'd probably be better off without the 245lbs of hairy weight hanging off of his neck every night.
Since he sat at home and watch his countrymen win gold, Markus has 3 goals and 3 assists in 11 games with an awful -9. It's crappy, but he's had 43 shots on goal and seems to be just firing blanks.
Bertuzzi is SO gone this offseason.
