He may have been able to escape just by skating, but Scott's hand is on his arm when that first slash is delivered, so he's not exactly out of grasp. You have the right to defend yourself, and in my opinion that first slash was not excessive as self defense.

Seems silly to assume you know what was said from a silent TSN clip.
