Tyler Bertuzzi, the Toronto Maple Leafs forward, embarked on a significant journey this summer, placing a bold bet on himself with a one-year contract and joining his 3rd Original 6 team.
However, the anticipated success has yet to materialize. In the initial 41 games of the season, Bertuzzi's performance falls short, with only six goals and 13 assists.
Notably, just two years ago, he netted 30 goals in 68 games with the Detroit Red Wings. Recent developments, including limited ice time and a demotion from the top six, cast a shadow over his current situation.
