If you watched the Detroit Red Wings-Colorado Avalanche game last night, you may have thought that you were seeing a game from the past, as the two long-time rivals had physical battle after battle all night long. That tension erupted after a Mike Green hit on Matt Calvert that sent him up against the Detroit bench, at which point several Red Wings players not on the ice got involved by holding Calvert’s stick and grabbing him.
During the scrum, Tyler Bertuzzi appeared to deliver a bare-knuckle punch to Calvert as Dylan Larkin held him down, and will now receive a hearing with the Department of Player Safety. Bertuzzi could very well receive a suspension for the incident, which was not penalized during the game.
There is no way bertuzzi doesn’t get suspended just for having that last name
Looks like he takes after his uncle, sucker punching defenseless players.
