Alright, so I've been thinking about this a few days, and I kind of just think why do the Edmonton media even think there needs to be some type of retribution?
Their position is that Tkachuk made illegal plays that had a high potential for injury and he needs to "answer the bell" (whatever the hell that means).
Kassian responded by making an illegal play with a high potential for injury. Shouldn't Kassian jumping him mean things have balanced out? Dirtbag play responded by dirtbag play, done and done.
The only thing I can think of is that they believe Tkachuk needs to be hurt. Then we're into an arms race.
