The 12 games is similar to the Johnson - Beukeboom incident, which it should be since they were practically the same. The playoffs I can agree with because while he didn't intend to break Moore's neck, a sucker punch to the head like that IS INTENDED TO INJURE, and the fact that all that bounty crap had happened and that a more serious injury DID OCCUR as a result of the sucker punch, means that the punishment should probably be a bit harsher than Beukeboom. But I see no reason for the fine on the Canucks, that was unreasonable.
