Hockey Fans: Bertuzzi slugs Moore... opinions?
Hey guys, did anyone else see this? One of the ugliest things i've ever seen in a hockey game. Absolutely brutal. Bertuzzi is a star in this league, and a great player, but the way he went about getting back at Moore was horrendous.
FYI: Steve Moore, a Colorado Avalanche player has broken 2 vertebrae in his neck as a result of a hit by the Vancouver Canucks Todd Bertuzzi. Moore had knocked out the Canucks captain with a clean hit last month, and Bertuzzi was getting "revenge" on Moore. He came up behind him, slugged him in the head, then slammed his head off of the ice; keep in mind, Moore weighs 205 lbs, Bertuzzi 245.
