Those are hits we celebrate when Kassian makes them, especially when he was running around like a wild man in the 2017 playoffs. .

I agree with you to a point. the difference is that is Kassian goes too far he stands up for himself.
The other difference here is where the hit was made. The only reason for Tkatchuk to come down from his spot and hit an Oiler coming from behind the net is to try and injure.
I feel like anyone who hated what Kassian did has spent very little time on the ice. If you look at the times Tkachuk hit Kassian he was out of position every time.
As a tactic to get in Kassian's head I have no problem with it. The flip side is also having no problem with Kassian's reaction.
If Tkatchuk is going to leave his position numerous times to take a run at someone I expect a reaction. I am a winger. In my younger years I had a few feuds with other wingers. Outside of crossing paths in the neutral zone there isnt a lot of opportunities during the game to go head to head. If someone chased me around this way I would have started the lawnmower on his face as well.
Maybe I am just getting old and stuck in the old traditions of hockey but I see little wrong with what either guy did.

The other difference.. the main one.. is that if Kassian made those hits he's suspended.. no questions asked ... and we get a NHL Corp robot telling us step by step why on a NHL Productions propaganda video.
Here's what Scotty Upshal has to say..

Kassian payed the price already. His team lost a big game on his instigator penalty. Smoked 3 times by M.T and he took it like a MAN. By the 3rd hit, he had enough and let the kid know it’s still a MANS game. (Or is it?) Sometimes a punch in the face (or 5) is what a guy needs

For those u haven’t played the game.... coming down from your WING (as a winger) to hit a vulnerable guy on a wraparound is as DIRTY as it gets. Such as BELOW. I know because I’ve done it, lots. I deserved a punch in the face too. If this hit was on McDavid, 10 GAMER MIN!

From this angle, it’s clear as day MT has ABSOLUTELY ZERO intention of making a hockey play. Again, for those of u who haven’t played at any level, other than Xbox, our new NHL states u must acknowledge there’s a puck on the ice at some point (I had no idea most nights either!)

McDAVID! Oh YEAH Baby!!
Tic-Tac-Tao!
Keep on Rockin' in the Free World
P. Chiarelli math.. T. Hall = A. Larsson, Yak= bag o'pucks (OK he got one right...) K. Russell = $4.1 M+NMC, G. Reinhart= M. Barzal + A. Beauvillier, J. Eberle = R. Spooner,
