Detroit Red Wings place Tyler Bertuzzi on injured reserve, recall Austin Czarnik

The Detroit Red Wings will once again be without Tyler Bertuzzi.

They placed the top-line winger on injured reserve Thursday evening, the day after he appeared to hurt his left hand when he was hit by a puck during the 5-4 shootout loss against the Buffalo Sabres. Bertuzzi is among multiple injuries the Wings have up front, necessitating calling up Austin Czarnik. The team was off Thursday, and return to practice Friday ahead of finishing a five-game home stand Saturday against the Vegas Golden Knights.

Bertuzzi was hit by a point shot taken by teammate Ben Chiarot.
