Bertuzzi lands in Calgary

$1.95-million dollar, one-year contract.
from The Star:
"Todd is a proven scorer with the ability to play both wings," Flames general manager Darryl Sutter said in a release. "He expressed to us that he wanted to play in Canada and that desire along with signing him to a one-year deal was important to our philosophy. He wanted to play on a good team and it fit our money. Additionally, our captain, Jarome Iginla, was a strong supporter of Todd and wanted him on our team."

I don't think I'd touch him with a ten foot pole, now.

Re: Bertuzzi lands in Calgary

I think you're dead on there. I never much liked the guy to begin with. He had the one stellar season in Vancouver where he had 97 points which suggested that there was more to him than his size but other than that, he is very average. I think his household name status has more to do with the Moore incident then his skill. The flames lost Nolan and picked up a similar player with less skill.

Well, the best thing about him going there is that now I know the Flyers won't be wasting thier money on him!.

I'm with you two, he is not close to worth the hassle.

Re: Bertuzzi lands in Calgary

hey yeah glenn you reminded me about nolan- so he's with the Wild.
wouldn't want him either.
$5.5 million, two-year contract—$2.75 million each season— he's 36! and he's never been the player he was since just before he played for the Leafs (we got him on the way back down).
