1. According to the rules, Burrows does not need to be suspended. He definitely instigated, but to me he was trying to get refs to maybe throw the instigator at Russell (which if you didn't see it happen you would have assumed Russell started it - ala CBC crew).
2. Hamhuis hit was a head hit, but I think Bennett was leading with his head. Refs called it a minor, no injury, and Sam better learn to not put himself in vulnerable positions.
3. Bieksa deserved a instigator penalty, but Ferland was equally culpable. The way he fought Ferland was a bit gutless, but whatever.
I have no problem with those three guys in game 4.
