Witkowski gives a couple of shoves to Kulak when he's down but it shouldn't have been that big of a deal. Kulak went into the fight willingly, lost pretty squarely, but didn't seem that rattled. Happens, the game is gone, just move on. This isn't some division rival we need to be mentally prepared to hate.
Losing sucks but it's just 2 points no matter the score. However if you take suspensions then this game keeps hurting you in the next game, and that's just stupid.

I see it as some goon beats up our guy. Fine, no biggie. The extra shots when he was already down were un necessary and classless... ok, maybe say something to him and then let it go. Then he immediately goes after Hamonic.... ok now clearly this is just a turd, who is enjoying his 15 seconds of fame to much and now deserves to square off with a more worthy opponent, but whatever. Remember his number and take care of it later. When he comes over to the bench after all this, in a blowout game and starts beaking the bench is where a team has to stand up and draw the line. If my team is getting blown out like that and this goon is pulling that s***, I'm going after him too.
It's unfortunate the way the penalties were handed out, but in that case the team had to step up and show they weren't taking that crap.
Good on Tkachuk, and the rest of them to not take that BS
