There's the real reason he's back, right there.

Bertuzzi lost ~500k during suspension (lockout notwithstanding)...he's coming back and going to earn over 5 mil...this is nothing more than a "suspended sentence" which is pathetic.

The impact of your actions has to be considered...most signs point to Moore likely never being able play again, at least not at an NHL level...Bertuzzi gives the NHL a few bucks that he recoups immediately when he's reinstated thanks to the 5mil he'll be earning...

McSorley sits out a season at a time when he didn't have a carreer ahead of him and certainly didn't have the money earning potential that Bertuzzi will have over his career...that's what I call a serious punishment....Bertuzzi gets a relative slap on the wrists.
