Second and third sure, but I have no issue with the first one. First of all, it's into Scott's shin pads, so it isn't doing any damage. Second, Scott was out to do a heck of a lot more damage than Kessel was. Third, outskating isn't really an option until you extract yourself from the immediate vicinity, which is exactly what that first whack did.
