Todd Bertuzzi Steve Moore incident: Crib notes for those who want the short version.
Moore cheap shotted our captain
Moore knew he had to answer
Moore fought worst fighter on our team and KNOWS that doesn't get him off the hook
The GOOD fighter on our team comes straight for him, and after a LIFETIME IN HOCKEY...Moore turns away, screwing both himself and the guy coming for him
Bertuzzi goes to engage in a fight like both he and Moore have countless times in countless games spanning their entire lives, there is a code of conduct that governs how this is done, it exists to mete out justice but ALSO to make sure that Justice stays within the game, everyone goes home that night to fight another day
Moore breaks the code, he turns away, Bertuzzi attacks as anyone especially Moore knew he would, I expect Moore thought he might get Bertuzzi ejected or suspended by turning away, he broke the code he gambled and EVERYONE LOST
Bertuzzi breaks his neck, THE LAST THING IN THE WORLD HE WOULD HAVE WANTED
Moore's dishonorable actions scar the lives of both men.
Nobody thinks he deserved it, but he set himself up for it then blamed it on everyone but himself when he damn well knew what he had done,
Steve Moore didn't deserve a broken neck, Bertuzzi didn't deserve to have his life turned upside down
Steve Moore was and IS a SCUMBAG
