BERTUZZI
Bertuzzi was his usual rough and tumble self in the first game, playing a physical brand of hockey and picking up two assists. Unfortunately, his success was sidelined by the fact former NHL player Steve Moore filed a $15 million civil lawsuit against Bertuzzi Wednesday, stemming from an on-ice incident during a game in 2004.

Team Canada plays the German team Thursday afternoon at 2 pm. The game will be televised on CBC (channel 9, cable 8).
