It was intentional, it was malacious, and it has no place in hockey, period. People need to quit sugar-coating and quit calling it ONLY a punch. It was a punch, he jumped on his back, and slammed his face into the ice. Thats exactly what it was. His face was driven into the ice before the other 5 guys even touched him.
Bertuzzi should be back in hockey, and I have no problem with him being reinstated. What makes me sick, is people actully trying to justify it to themselves that what happened was an acceptable act.

If you'll notice my post was in response to someone from the forum saying they couldn't wait to see Berts career end. Here's the quote for you

Can't wait to see his career end.

And my response was that anyone who has ever played hockey would never say anything like that. If you think people who have played hockey say those things then it's quite obvious you haven't played at any kind of competitive level before.
So no not a double standard at all. When did Bert say he wanted Moores career to end? That's right he didn't, read the entire thread next time before you accuse me of having a double standard in this situation.
Now he jumped on his back? Sorry but no jump in the video footage I've seen and no driving his head to the ice either, I did see 5 or more people jumping on top of them though, but when the actual injury occured is always going to be open for debate.
No one is justifying it, we're just trying to not paint Bert as a madman like some people here seem to be trying to do, like I already said in a previous post.
