Tyler Bertuzzi opens up on why he left his former organization
Former Boston Bruin, Tyler Bertuzzi has opened up on why he betrayed a former organization he was apart of.
After leaving the Boston Bruins, Tyler Bertuzzi joined the Toronto Maple Leafs, and split some time playing with Auston Matthews, Max Domi, and John Tavares.
Tyler Bertuzzi didn't seem to mesh very well with the Toronto Maple Leafs as he did with the Boston Bruins, but would play an important role for them in the playoffs. During the regular season, Bertuzzi would score 21 goals, along with 22 assists for 43 points.
Ultimately Tyler Bertuzzi priced himself out of Toronto with his playoff performance, and Maple Leafs General Manager Brad Treliving wanted to retain Max Domi over Tyler Bertuzzi. Bertuzzi made it clear that he wanted to stay with the Toronto Maple Leafs, but would later leave the organization in free agency.
During free agency, Tyler Bertuzzi would sign a four-year $22 million contract with the Chicago Blackhawks.
