If you want retribution then drive the net and take Dell's head off

The thing is, it wasn't just Dell. It was Kane being the baddest man on the planet when he thought he had a chance to sucker punch a prone Tkachuk. It was Karlsson hacking away at Gaudreau repeatedly. It was the Sharks clearly being angry and frustrated that we took them to the woodshed, getting dirty, and the officials doing not a damn thing about it.
So Bennett saw an opportunity to send a message and took it. You can argue it was unnecessary from a hockey perspective, and I'll agree. But sometimes messages have to be sent that go beyond the immediate context of the score. And if Simek has a problem with that, he can take it up with his teammates. They're the reason he got crushed.
