There’s debate within the organization whether Tyler Bertuzzi will do so, too. He’s eligible, but the downside to him joining their playoff push is he could be playing into June — and that would shorten his offseason as far as workouts and gaining strength.
“In his case, if he were to not go down, the positive would be he can start his training early,” Wings coach Jeff Blashill said. “The positive if he goes down is to just continue to work towards becoming an elite player, not just a real good complementary player. But the negative side is if it’s a real long run, it cuts into his training.”
St. James mentions a decision is expected by the weekend.
