Did you watch the video?
Coles Notes:
Scott Obviously says something to Kessel
Kessel says something to Scott
The line up Scott pushes Kessels Stick forward and Kessel Turns to Scott.
Now this is where you should watch the video, Kessel BARELY makes contact with Scott shoulder and Scott drops his gloves and goes crazy after Kessel. Scott was already in motion to go after Kessel as Kessel raised his arms.
To Illustrate this I will show some screen Caps with time frames to give you an example.
This is at the 26.1 Second Mark of the video, Kessel is raising his hand to most likely push Scott.
This is at the 26.7 Second Mark of the video, Scott already has a hand on Kessel as Kessel has just made contact with Scott, check his right hand, His glove is already coming off.
I must be honest, Scott has amazing reaction time to have reacted to the Kessel Touch at 26.4 with a reach and contact on Kessel at the 26.7 second mark.........
