For anyone who missed it....

1. The hit on Modano was hardly "going after their star player". He knocked him off his feet. Little else.
2. Robidas was going in to protect his capitain and star player. He had both arms up and was aiming for Tootoo's neck/head. Tootoo saw it coming over his right shoulder (you can see him looking) and threw his haymaker in defense. Robidas suffered the misfortune of skating straight into it.
Tootoo will get 3 games because the stretcher had to come out. But should he get anything? I don't think so.
