If true how is that even allowed? His rights weren't traded were they?

It's possible Treliving gave Bertuzzi's agent the OK to talk with Chicago...or it's yet another case of ''legal'' tampering.

Tampering does not exist when it comes to Chicago.

With that said, the Ottawa Senators have been fined their 2027 1st round pick as a result of this contract.

They never gonna be able to prove this stuff, are they? I mean, just look at deals being announced within minutes after FA begins. You think pmayers/agents gave had time to go through different options?

Can we retire the "Ottawa has been punished" meme this off-season? It's reaching reddit levels of tedium for a meme that wasn't all that funny to begin with

No

Kane is jealous. Bertuzzi is speed running the O6 challenge.

Yikes.

You’ll never believe the penalty that’s being assessed, and to whom, for you making this post.

 

[ShootIt]

Seems like a fair deal for both sides.

2028 was looking like such a good draft year, too

Bertuzzi on the Original 6 tour.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Good spot for him

 

[HarrisonFord]

Such a frustrating player. Maybe the worst edges in the league. Hawks fans, if you want to get drunk, take a shot every time he falls down.

I think they also fined the Rangers.

 

[chizzler]

No tampering?

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Falling to a original six team near you.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Fair

 

[AvroArrow]

Wish Bertuzzi the best, wanted him back but sadly cap won't work.

Also this is 100000% tampering but the NHL never does anything about it

 

[Mrfenn92]

I mean tampering is funny since once free agency actually starts, deals start rolling in from the start.

 

[Jerzey Devil]

Why get mad about tampering? You’re just mad whatever player didn’t want to sign where you wanted them to. But they were never going to sign there anyway so who cares when the deal was hashed out?
