If you've ever played the game, you know how quickly things can and do happen. Now, multiply that quickness by 100, because the game happens a helluva lot faster in the NHL than it does in bantam. I simply can't imagine Moore having the time to think to himself "here's my chance to make a name for myself" in that split second (and remember, the 1,546,732 replays we saw of that hit were in slow motion).
is what Bertuzzi did acceptable? no? was it cheap? yes. BUT, if there hadn't have been a pile up , I don't think Moore would've been as seriously injured, and had he had not taken a cheapshot on Naslund himself, then the whole incident wouldn't have happened.
