Todd Bertuzzi's status for tonight's game is that he's a game-time decision. He practiced this morning, but he went out a back door without speaking with the media. Coach Mike Babcock said this: "I don't know. He's a game-time decision. It's basically can a guy go, can a guy not go."
Niklas Kronwall also had his first practice with the team since going down with a fractured sacrum. Kronwall skated for the third consecutive day, but Tuesday was his first time on the ice with his teammates running through drills. "It's a step in the right direction," said Kronwall. "Obviously, I would have liked to be able to do more out there, but it is what it is. I've just got to try to take one step forward every day. It feels better than it did yesterday."
