Tyler Bertuzzi Bounces Back

Three games after returning from his injury, Tyler Bertuzzi has a huge weight lifted off his shoulders. Bertuzzi scored his first goal of the year tonight also tallied an assist in the Red Wings win over the Blue Jackets. After a controversial play in overtime two games ago this should be a huge confidence booster moving forward for Bertuzzi. Just three games back you can see the chemistry sparking again between him and Lucas Raymond which is another positive takeaway from tonight’s game.
