Tyler Bertuzzi returned to practice Tuesday (Hand injury) and is expected back in 7-10 days.

Bertuzzi has been out since the second game of the season when he broke his hand and was a pleasant face to see a return to Red Wings practice Tuesday. It was a tough loss for both the Red Wings and Bertuzzi after he put up his first 30/30 season last year finishing with 62 points (30G/32A) in 68 games in 2021-22. Prior to breaking his hand, he picked up one assist and four SOG in two games.

Bertuzzi has been activated from the COVID-19 protocol list and will play on Tuesday.

Bertuzzi missed the last five games while in COVID-19 protocol but was back on the ice for Monday's practice and will play Tuesday against the Islanders. Bertuzzi says he will remain unvaccinated. He has had a really strong year thus far, scoring nine goals with nine assists (18 points) in 20 games.

Bertuzzi declined to be vaccinated for COVID-19, making him ineligible to play in Canada in 2021-22.

Bertuzzi will be in training camp and will be forced to follow more strict guidelines but will be eligible to play in all games in the United States. The Red Wings play nine games in Canada this season, so Bertuzzi will be suspended without pay for those games under the agreement between the NHL and the NHLPA.

Bertuzzi (upper-body) is expected to miss at least the next 4-6 games.

Bertuzzi, who was hurt last Saturday vs. the Panthers, did not travel to start the Red Wings six-game road-trip. Head coach Jeff Blashill said he'll definitely be out for the first four games of the trip and may miss all six. This is a tough break for Bertuzzi, who was red-hot to start the season, posting seven points (5G / 2A) in his first nine games.
