Todd Bertuzzi and the men's ice hockey
team go home disappointed in 2006, failing to defend their
Olympic gold medal from four years ago. The Canadians fell to
Team Russia 2-0 in the quarter-finals Wednesday.
Bertuzzi, who was a play-making force for
Canada in the first two games, was held scoreless in the final
four contests, three of which were shut out losses. It was
Bertuzzi's third period penalty Wednesday that led to a
Russian powerplay and the winning goal by Alexander
Ovechkin.
Bertuzzi finishes the tournament with three
assists, nine shots on goal and six penalty minutes in six
games.
