It's gonna be one very long weekend for Bertuzzi in Denver this week ...

Avalanche fans used to save their worst for the Detroit Red Wings. Bertuzzi and the Canucks have supplanted the Red Wings, though, as the team and player Avs fans most love to hate.
...
It figures to be a long week for Bertuzzi. In a rare scheduling move, the NHL called for Vancouver to play two straight games in Denver, meaning the Canucks and Bertuzzi will be in town for the better part of four days.

i really think Bert has taken the 'high' road with everything lately...his comments with the media and whith his play on the ice...


good luck to him and the 'Nucks (except when playing the Ducks)

[hockey2k]

That's a very strange twist of scheduling fate if you ask me...conspiracy theory anyone?

Bert has more to worry about than a hostile Denver crowd though, his play just hasn't been up to par this season.

I can't wait to see this game because i wanna laugh at bertuzzi and watch the fans boo him because of what he did to Steve Moore. I think it was very lame of him and he is a sucker for doing that.

Community service at its finest.

I hope the 'Nucks beat the heck outta the 'Lanche. . .on the scoreboard.

[hockey2k]

I predict the Nucks and Avs will each win a game this time around and Bert doesn't make it on to the scoreboard either night. Both of the teams have been quoted as saying they're over the incident and are moving on...it's really just the fans holding a grudge. It's not like Bert hasn't gotten booed before, he has never endeared himself to anyone's fans except Vancouver's. (I personally was never a big fan of his...I prefer Nazzy myself!)

Why do u say that Glovesave35?


The avs with will at least one if not both.

The avs with will at least one if not both.

You would know more about the Avalanche than I, and correct me if I'm wrong, but this seems optimistic considering recent stats. The Canucks have come out strong and are on a huge winning streak, whereas the Avs have have seemed to start out atypically sporadic and are only at .500. Now I haven't seen the Colorado games mind you, so maybe they have been getting stronger as the weeks progress. You'd have to tell me what they've been up to, because I only know from the Canucks. Either way, these will be two great games, I'm sure.

Oh, hey...here's another article:

"You're going to have fans throwing stuff at him," said Avs fan Jeff Richards. "They're going to be spitting on him when he comes out."

Avs fan Phil Talbott wants Bertuzzi to be booed but hopes no one in the crowd does anything stupid. "They can vocalize all they want but that's as far as it should go," said Talbott. "If they (throw something) they should be out of here."

Canucks, Bertuzzi hit hostile territory

Why do I say that? Because as a Ducks fan, I hate the Avs.

As for the Avs winning or not, it's no skin off my nose at this point in the season. . .I just don't like them.

[LUPUL15]

Does anyone know where we can get footage of him getting booed i would want to see this

The game was the first for Canucks' right winger Todd Bertuzzi in Denver since his on-ice attack of former Avalanche center Steve Moore.

People should get over with this incident. Time to move on...

[goavsgo]

None of this wouldn't of happened if he had never did what he did. Now he's gonna have to face the concequences. I liked him before but not anymore. That was very stupid of him.
