Oh, you're a mind reader now? Scott didn't seem like he was out there to Bertuzzi Kessel. He was sent out to send a message but that doesn't mean he's looking to destroy a soft star player.

He doesn't have to lineup directly next to him. He can back up and give himself space before the puck is dropped.
