Brian McGrattan's ten minute misconduct Sunday was aimed to stop inciting.
McGrattan whupped the Canucks Tom Sestito and then saluted the crowd a la Jaromir Jagr. Jagr never receives a penalty when he salutes as the referees determine that it is celebratory rather than trying to incite. The incident arose last season when Arron Asham incited the crowd with gestures after winning a fight against Jay Beagle.
