> brieres “sucker punch” was while wearing a padded glove and he hit the guy in the helmet, thats like a slap on the wrist. nichol physically threw off his glove to deck spacek. that shows premeditation, not heat of the moment. he had to THINK to drop just ONE glove

> you want to talk about “heat of the moment” things being ok, alright, todd bertuzzi sucker punched someone AND THEN proceeded to bash his lifeless face against the ice…but thats cool b/c it was just the “heat of the moment”…good call there :ham:
