As season shrinks, Red Wings continue to wait, hope on Tyler Bertuzzi's return to health

Detroit — The hockey schedule says it’ll be seven weeks since Tyler Bertuzzi last played in a hockey game.

And with only seven weeks left in this shortened NHL season, you really begin to wonder if the Red Wings have seen the last of Bertuzzi this season.

Red Wings forward Tyler Bertuzzi hasn't played since Jan. 30.

Bertuzzi played just under 16 minutes on Jan. 30 against Florida, and hasn’t been back in uniform since.

The Wings are listing Bertuzzi with having an upper-body injury.

During a Zoom call with media after Thursday’s morning skate, coach Jeff Blashill didn’t rule out Bertuzzi missing the rest of the season.
