Here's what we know now: Tom Sestito's been in some incredible pillow fights.
The Pittsburgh Penguins forward did what any reasonable person would after getting jumped and punched repeatedly by the New Jersey Devils' Jordin Tootoo on Sunday: He tweeted.
Never thought I'd be in s pillow fight in the NHL before 😂😂😂

According to The Record's Tom Gulitti, who cites subscriber-only website DKonPittsbughsports.com, Sestito was in fine form with his postgame comments.
"I think Tootoo took exception to the hit I just made. So, he switches sides before the faceoff and comes over to my side. I asked him if he wanted to go. He basically turned me down, then shoots the puck at me. Next think I know, I think I'm at a Tri Delta sorority getting hit by pillows. The guy's a joke."
Tootoo, shared some of his thoughts with Gulitti.
"They brought (Sestito) in for one reason. He's a one-dimensional guy and I don't think he's very bright at playing the game," Tootoo said. "So I knew what was coming."
Hence Tootoo getting a head start.
"He's the one who initiated it all and he knows that when I'm asked to go, I'm going to go. You can say I'm a lot quicker than him or whatever, but he knew what was coming."

Twitter is about the only way for Sestito to get any revenge at this point. I wonder what the fallout is going to be. I can only imagine if the much larger Sestito decided to sucker punch Tootoo Tom wouldn’t be playing for the rest of the year at least.
