Todd Bertuzzi has given up hope on returning to Calgary, and is now expected to sign with an American team in the Eastern Conference. "They never called me," Bertuzzi told the Calgary Herald of the Flames on Thursday. "No calls from them whatsoever. So obviously, I'm out of their picture." He then discussed possible landing spots. "I'm speaking to about three teams right now," Bertuzzi said. "We're just trying to figure things out. "If the stars align here, I could end up somewhere where the travel is a lot easier. Hopefully we'll get something done here in the next 48 hours."
