I had no doubt he tried to step on his foot. But I couldn't think of a way to penalize. Would have been a hard sell as an offensive foul. Would have been harder as an intentional. Couldn't go unsporting as it involved contact.
Any help would be appreciated.

When talking to players isnt appreciated, I blow the whistle.
If B5 retaliated what do you have now?
By the letter of the rule, you could have tossed him for the flagrant act. Revisit the definiton of fighting...
Definitely a HTBT, but from the sound of it I think an X is good here.
