I think at the time there definitely needed to be.
It didn't look like a targeted attack to me, but Dube was on the bench clearly feeling the effects at that time. For everyone in that locker room, they know what kind of a bum deal this is for Dube. I'd want that to be answered for on my bench - I know I'd want him to answer for it myself.
An apology is great sportsmanship of course, but the result earned some retribution still nonetheless.
It could have been a hard period for the Canucks, with the score settled and the lines drawn going into the 2nd. How much fun would that have been?!
