RNH with a tiny shoulder bump after Stone plays the puck.
Nurse, Bouchard, and Desharnais giving him cross checks when he's in front of the net, which happens approximately 100 times per game.

Not really seeing the concerted effort at targeting Stone that the panel is selling.
Yeah, you would probably feel the same way if it was McDavid the mentioned being “targeted”

Only in that case being “targeted” would be the audacity of a player to actually play defence or heaven forbid… make body contact.
