First...I think Anyone named Ruutu is a cheap shot artist (see other Fin jerk in the East). Still, he got ambushed. If you're gonna fight, then drop them clean. Don't jump him.

I'm not sure who would have won, but Ruutu didn't stand a chance. BTW, someone else said it....Blackhawks showed NO unity there. Maybe they don't like Jarko...I mean Tuomo either.

Sloppy stick, but the hit wasn't that bad. I agree the announcers are morons, but the check was fine, MacDonald's not a superstar that you can't hit! this is hockey ladies, kunitz deserves a suspension, he must be a bertuzzi fan.

LMAO! at all the Blackhawk fans talking smack. Just admit that you guys got it handed to you buy a tough team. Yeah I am a ducks fan, and you can call me a homer... Regardless, Ruutu was taking cheap shots and got called on it by Kunitz. So yeah... live with it

Another example of why the instigator penalty should be scrapped or reduced. It would have been embarassing if nobody on the Ducks slugged Ruutuu after the high stick.

If they square off RUUTU kills Kunitz no if ands or buts. Kunitz HAD to jump him for his own safety!!!!

Go, Kuny!!! Chris isn't a fighter, per se, but what the Chi Homers call "throwing the body around" was Ruutu doing a backhand wrister off AndyMac's face.
The zebra's were going to call it, but Kuny made the right choice, 'cause the intent to injure only got a minor. The misconduct was on the extreme edge of reasonable, considering the Matcher that they were going to let slide by with 2 minutes. You'd think after Simon..... but I guess Ruutu didn't have enough time to shift his stick properly, and just destroyed the visor.

Kunitz NEVER dropped his gloves. He was attacked.

Ruutu had it coming. Congratulations Kunitz.

he nearly knocked him out with those puches

This is what happens when you take cheap shots on skill players. The Ducks were up I think 5-1 when this fight happened and were taking it easy on the Hawks. Ruutu is an idiot and deserved what he got.

Kunitz is the man
