Punching up in the heavyweight division in his entire career, Jordin Tootoo has relied on speed to carve out an enforcer role in the NHL.
But on Sunday, after having exchanged words with Tom Sestito, he was just a touch overzealous.
Tootoo's seven unanswered punches before Sestito let go of his stick gave the Penguins a power play, which they capitalized on with a goal.
