I'm sorry but the Naslund hit wasn't dirty. Ugly? Yep. Illegal? Nope. If you put yourself in that position with a banger coming at you what do you think is going to happen? Is Moore going to use his dazzling skating abilities to steal the puck and head off on a break away? I think not. He's going to lay the body on. Betuzzi is a punk. A full year is what should be dished out but I fear the worst. 10 games is what I think he will get and that in itself is a crime.
Bertuzzi suspended indefinitely for hit on Moore.
