WOW! What a goal by Tyler Bertuzzi!

Was that Tyler or Todd?

Detroit Red Wings forward Tyler Bertuzzi scored a beauty of a goal in Monday night’s matchup against the Anaheim Ducks, and sure looked like his uncle Todd while doing so.

He took a pass from Michael Rasmussen at the goal line and spun out in front of Ducks goaltender John Gibson before beating him blocker side for the 1-0 lead. It was Bertuzzi’s second goal of the season after scoring in Detroit’s home opener on Thursday against Columbus.

With the assist, Michael Rasmussen picks up his first NHL point.
