Default Trade - Bortuzzo to the Islanders

For a 7th rounder.

Always thought he is decent enough as a 5th or 6th dman. Makes our return for Z look a little better too.

I will never get over how much "Bortuzzo" sounds like a bad caricature of "Bertuzzi."

Mom can we have Bertuzzi for dessert. No son, we have Bortuzzo at home.

Bortuzzo sounds like a clown on a ####ty Serbian kid’s television show.

Got to know him pretty well before I moved out to Calgary.

Shocking he played for the Blues for 10 years.

Wasn't playing much this year and the Isles D have been hit pretty hard by the injury bug. Hopefully he plays well enough to earn another contract.

Dinosaur Lou made Bortuzzo shave. Stupid rules he makes about having to be clean shaven. Retire already, Lou. Geez Louise.

Seeing Hischier in the game today, I was reminded of the time Cammalleri signed with the Devils and Lou made him change his number because he wouldn't allow someone to wear #13.
