Had he been known for taking things too far or close, I'd agree with you nords.

But the league isn't going to go banning a premier player.

Hockey players tend to police themselves. I gaurantee there's not a single soul in the league who wasn't horrified at this, or trying to justify his actions. There's no example needed, and banning him isn't going to defer anyone's future actions.

Megatoon's right, the instigator rule needs to go. Even in that game, Bertuzzi would've gotten away with an instigator penalty and a minor suspension if had had been jabberjawing with moore and was standing in front of him with a bit of shoving first.
