He was hitting Kassian. Who, by his own admission, loves that part of the game.
The people in Edmonton and even some in the media say maybe Edmonton should target Johnny. That is not the same. That is not apples to apples. If Edmonton wants revenge, feel free to target Lucic. Or hey, feel free to target Tkachuk. He doesn’t care. If they target Tkachuk, he is getting what he wants. He is getting Edmotnon off their game.
But to say that because your skill guy hit our tough guy, we are going to target your skill guy - that is Edmonton being Edmonton.

only lost to the mouth breathers...
even kaveman himself said he loved the hitting; just thought Tkachuk should have answered the bell... at that point in the game that would have been a stupid thing to do...
