You can also look at it a third way. Kessel used his stick to keep Scott at bay and avoid getting his ass kicked. Your first angle is absurd, you're attempting to paint Kessel as the instigator? Hilarious.
Guess what else you don't do in hockey. Go after guys who don't fight, don't want to fight and have no reason to fight. Especially if you're a goon who serves no purpose but to fight.

I think it's safe to say they both had the intention to injure. Scott definitely got the ball rolling though. I think kessel's first swing was terrified self-preservation but his second swing wasn't necessary.
