Detroit Red Wings' Tyler Bertuzzi (lower body) could be back as soon as Tuesday

For a change, the Detroit Red Wings don't anticipate Tyler Bertuzzi missing much time.

Bertuzzi is dealing with a lower-body injury that forced him to miss leave the last game early. He was scratched Saturday against the Philadelphia Flyers, but could be available again as soon as next week.

"This is a true day-to-day," coach Derek Lalonde said after the morning skate. "We hope to have him for Tuesday. If not, we have the eight-day break."

The Wings play at home Tuesday against the San Jose Sharks, then go on a quick road trip, Thursday at Montreal and Friday at the New York Islanders, before the All-Star break.
