Again, I've seen fights in professional hockey that looked much worse but had less resultant trauma. Yes, it was a cheap shot. Yes, it was a shame. The resultant trauma was more or less a freak consequence like when you lift a heavy object the same way hundreds of different occasions but, due to some unusual angle or sudden movement, you pull a muscle and throw your back out. You were just as stupid to do the move the first hundred times or so but this time there was a consequence.
