First of all, why in the heck of hockey maven is Bertuzzi blaming Marc Crawford for this hit. He was the one that hit Steve Moore form behind in a March 2004 game in Vancouver. I can think of 1 reason why he blames his former coach in Vancouver. Bertuzzi is being sued by Moore for 38 million dollars. How interesting timing of this, but I have to say this. It has been 3 years since Steve Moore played. So what is the point about this lawsuit? Huh! Now all of a sudden Crawford is on the hot seat in L.A. His team is not playing well (typical Kings Hockey, take that Barry Melrose!) Not to really pile on here, but Crawford is not really a saint here. Neither is Steve Moore, who is the one by the way started this by taking out Markus Naslund (he a fraud of a player too). Hey Steve Moore! stop your darn whining and face the music already. For more on this story it is up on www.cbcsports.ca
Moore did take a hit on Naslund, that's true, and the NHL ruled that hit clean. Moore's livelihood was taken away by the dirtiest play that sport has ever seen, broken neck among many other injuries, and he sues...can you blame him? I sure can't. You get your neck broken and livelihood taken away...Moore is far from a whiner, and he's faced more music than you have ever faced in your lifetime. Rehab a broken neck, and recover from a severe concussion and get back to me.
Bertuzzi is and always was a lunkhead.
He played junior here in Guelph and had a head of cement.
I still do not think he comprehends what he did.
OR he simply is not man enough to take responsibility.
Be a man Todd-quit blaming everyone else.
To offer Moore 350 grand was adding insult to injury.
i dont believe bertuzzi has actually come out and said word for word that crawford told him to do it, the story is just a story as far as im concerned and until the people involved actually say its true i dont believe it
bert was a bone head for the hit, no doubt about it and he should and will have to pay.
but moore brought this on himself. i don't care if the nhl ruled his hit clean - it wasn't - they are wrong, and have been wrong in a lot of cases. bert dragging crow into this is coming from the lawyers in an attempt to spread the $$ around so he doesn't have to pony up the entire award. moore should file suit against granato for putting him on the ice that late in a blowout with tempers still hot from the previous game.
