apollo Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Big Bert is a healthy scratch for detroit for tonight's game. It really can't take much to take him off their hands. I initially thought a package including booth but I would prefer to keep booth. Also Bert is a much better option than Vinny. Proposed possible lines Bert Shredder Kass Twins and Bert Burr kes Bert Bert Richardson tito He's a good fit. Please let's bring home the Italian Stallion. Hes a much better option than prospal. Possible trades Bert for Future considerations (he's a bad cap hit for detroit) Bert for Booth straight up. Bert for 6th round pick And also I'm sure he would help our awful PP Plus imagine all the cash flow for Aquilini from Jersey sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon4401 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Not just a better option then Vinny but being a good vet PWF and Kassians hero he would def help accelerate his development Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonMexico Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I think the legal issues surrounding him, Crawford and the Canucks organization over the Steve Moore incident may prevent this from ever happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuck204 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 He would also help us in shootouts! He has dirty dirty hands... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absent Canuck Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Strictly due to political reasons, Berti will never wear a Vancouver uniform again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bren Mo Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I wouldnt consider him an upgrade over anyone on the top 2 lines. That being said it might be interesting to put him on our 4th line and get him to hit people, forecheck, grind people in the corners, and occasionally run over the other teams goalie. Bert and sestito when hes playing dirty would be a fun 4th line along.with a guy like mcgratten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Surfer Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Big Bert is a healthy scratch for detroit for tonight's game. All it would take is for Aquaman to pop $20 mill into Bertuzzi's bank account to settle the Moore lawsuit. Which Bertuzzi is angling the Canucks to pay... Just snap your fingers!

Pears Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Bringing Bert in to mentor Kassian for half a year would be such a smart move. Sedin - Sedin - Burrows Bertuzzi - Kesler - Kassian Higgins - Schroeder - Hansen Sestito - Richardson - Santorelli Booth, Weise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R3aL Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I wouldddddd love dumping booth for Bertuzzi! Maybe thed think Weiss and Booth would get going together Mentoring and it would be good to mend some bridges, memories of WCE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deus.ex.makina Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Booth for Bert.. simple. sexy. count me in. too bad i dont pull the trigger myself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 I wouldddddd love dumping booth for Bertuzzi! Maybe thed think Weiss and Booth would get going together Mentoring and it would be good to mend some bridges, memories of WCE Honestly the trade makes sense for both teams. Isn't booth from Michigan? That being said I'm not ready to give up on booth. We can just buy him out if he doesn't get it together. We wouldn't need to give much up for Bert at this point and with his contract. Let's do it. He can mentor tito and kass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicklas Bo Hunter Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 booth for Bertuzzi would be amazing but imagine the media rape...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 booth for Bertuzzi would be amazing but imagine the media rape...... Which is another reason I think it could happen. Aquilini is only after marketing and money. He's a smart business man. That's why he hired torts. A guy from Boston who can't teach his players how to hold a third period lead. We pretty much automatically lose all games we lead in the third it's pathetic. He brought I'm torts for the ratings. Can't say I haven't been entertained by torts tho. Hes completely entertaining in every way. Either way bringing back Bert would hype the team more and result in more money in francescos pockets. BRING BERT BACK !!!
