Should Alex Burrows have been Suspended?

In the midst of a scrum at the end of the first period in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals, it looks like Vancouver's Alex Burrows bit the index finger of Boston's Patrice Bergeron. There is video evidence to back this up yet Burrows is allowed to play the next game as he avoids suspension. Burrows spoke with NHL's league senior vice president who said there was nothing backing up that Burrows did it on purpose.

Do I think he did it on purpose? Yes. Is it a punk move? Absolutely. Should he have been suspended? No. It's the Stanley Cup Finals and you want the game to be decided by the players on the ice rather than officials or commissioners. If it happened in January in the middle of the regular season he would be suspended. I feel it would warrant a multiple game suspension.

Look for the Bruins to come out very aggressive in Game 2 and someone like Milan Lucic or Nathan Horton give him a hard shot right from the get go. I like the chance that the Bruins get to take care of business on the ice instead of Burrows having to sit out a game. From what was already an interesting series, it's only going to get better.
