I know Bertuzzi wasn't TRYING to break the guy's neck, but he was definitely trying to hurt him. True, Moore gave Vancouver's captain a cheap shot last time they met, and I fully understand Bertuzzi's frustration and drive for wanting to get Moore back for it (as what usually happens when you go after a teammate with a cheap shot, you can damn well expect to be a marked man the next time the two teams meet).
But let's seriously look at the situation. He came up from behind, punched the back side of Moore's head, fairly hard, jumped on top of him, and purposely slammed Moore's face straight into the ice, then proceeded to beat the snot out of him, mind you while he was already down, and unconscious, even after the team started piling on top of the both of them.
He has probably ruined Moore's NHL career for life, and let's not forget that Moore is only 25 years old, and in his rookie year too.
Bertuzzi deserves a very long suspension without pay, a few fines, and a night in jail.
