I think the most important part is that the league has NOT assured him of being allowed to play next year. While it is sure that Moore will make a full "normal" recovery, there is some discussion that he might not be able to play again as a result of this action.
IMHO, players who intentionally injure another player should be suspended for as long as the other player cannot play, plus 50%. If Moore cannot return to the game, then it should be a career ender for Bertuzzi as well.
Further, if Moore suffers a loss of future income as a result, I would think that legal action might be in order.
This sort of thing has no place in sport (or the real world) and Bertuzzi should face the real world consquences of his actions.
