Rotowire
Bertuzzi scored two goals, including one on the power play, in Friday's 9-3 loss to the Sabres.

The 30-year-old winger continues to produce at a high level, delivering nine goals, three assists, six PIM, 19 shots, six hits and a plus-4 rating in his last six appearances. The prolific stretch is bound to regress, though, as Bertuzzi has posted an astronomically high 47.4 shooting percentage over that span.

Rotowire
Bertuzzi netted a goal and dished out a power-play assist in Thursday's 3-2 loss to Seattle.

After a solid 46-point first year with the Blackhawks in 2024-25, he's been one of the surprises of the NHL season thus far. Bertuzzi is a lock to receive top-six minutes moving forward, and his current scoring run gives him great streaming value in all fantasy formats.

Blackhawks' Tyler Bertuzzi: Seven points in three games
Rotowire
Bertuzzi tallied a power-play goal, recorded a power-play assist, put two shots on target and served four PIM in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Red Wings.
Bertuzzi chipped in on Teuvo Teravainen's power-play goal before he scored one himself early in the third period. After Sunday's goal, Bertuzzi now has nine tallies this season with six coming in his last three games. Chicago's top-line left winger has benefited from the heightened play of superstar Connor Bedard this year, and Bertuzzi could chase the 30-goal mark for the first time since the 2021-22 campaign. The 30-year-old forward is a solid fantasy streaming option until he cools off, but it's smart to hold onto Bertuzzi in deeper leagues due to the gains Chicago has made on offense recently.
