Ducks buy out Bertuzzi's contract.
Todd Bertuzzi is no longer a Duck.
After a disappointing season, the Ducks have decided to buy out the remainder of Bertuzzi's 2-year, $8 million contract. Word is they'll take a cap hit of $1.3 million next year and if anyone is slow to say that's worth it, it's GM Brian Burke, Bertuzzi's staunchest ally among NHL front offices.
