Red Wings forward Tyler Bertuzzi is scheduled for a hearing with the NHL Monday for “roughing/unsportsmanlike conduct” against Avalanche forward Matt Calvert during Sunday’s game in Detroit, the league announced.
Calvert was on the ice in the middle of the third period when he knocked against Detroit’s bench by Red Wings defenseman Mike Green. When Detroit players grabbed ahold of Calvert’s stick, he pulled hard and a scrum started between the players on the bench and the Avs forward.
As Detroit center Dylan Larkin held onto Calvert, Bertuzzi delivered an uppercut to the Colorado player.
