My thoughts are, if there is zero tolerance from actions from the bench, it should be blanket policy. I really don't care either way, as long as they were consistent, which they won't be.

Zero tolerance doesn't mean blanket consequence.

Would you think it reasonable that a guy who squirts water gets the same punishment as someone throwing out a clothesline to a player involved in the play?

An automatic discipline for taking action from the bench to reflect zero tolerance makes sense... but a blanket consequence doesn't really make sense.

100%

Sean Avery was know to spit on players backs from the bench…..I don’t recall any suspension or consequences.

Disgusting behaviour from a questionable character.
