Otherwise, Holzer deserved one for getting involved in the Ferland/Kessler shoving match, which also wasn't a fight.

It is a all a judgement call by the official. I've seen a few times where a player gets an instigator and 5 for fighting and the other team gets a 7 min pp. When bourque was a flame he got 2 min instigator, 2 min for fighting with a visor and 5 for fighting when he jumped a player that hit a flame. Caps ended up with a 9 minute pp.
