Crapitals fans might be the most stupid fanbase in all of hockey. At the very least, they’ve definitely exposed themselves as shit people who know no boundaries in defending the actions of other shit people.

This is a dirty, dangerous & cowardly move regardless where the initial contact is, that force could cause serious injury. And another Capitals players on Buskevichs legs, talk about being handcuffed and defenseless.

Wilson hit his jaw/cheek/neck and its conclusive, this should be a long suspension. You just can not punch someone in that position ever!

Somehow not even the dirtiest thing he did in that sequence.
 
"Capitals coach Peter Laviolette didn't think there was anything out of the ordinary during the second-period incident. "I thought it was just a scrum. Physical play. There was something going on originally with the goalie and jamming at the goalie. We had a bunch of players jump in there. It happens a lot," he said."

"Washington's official Twitter account published a tweet after the game that said "Capitals chooses (sic) violence" that indicated Wilson was living "rent free" in the heads of critics. The tweet has since been deleted."

Sickening stuff.
 
We're all lucky af that Bread's shoulder hit the ice first and absorbed most of the velocity.

If that's his head, there would have been brain matter on the ice.

Hire a hitman, put him in hockey gear and just let him kill somebody. One NHL game, 2 minutes of ice time, 17 PIM, lifetime suspension.
 
Not saying he is blocking it. They need bodies at LD in the short term and a placeholder will be brought in. Instead of keeping Miller and shoving aside the placeholder for Robertson, ship out Miller for some other need. He has gone backwards recently. My biggest gripe with him is his passiveness, and not just for his size.

I am glad you do not represent Rangers hockey in any way.. A little reactive,no?
 
Somehow (mostly) lost in this is that the officials let him come back and play. Especially after he raged out on them for that first penalty. Dude was clearly unhinged, just unreal.
It’s amazing the league and players union can’t agree that this psycho is bad for the game on so many levels. Baffling.

I was hoping Laviolette and the organization would actually take responsible action. Boy do I feel silly.

Could you imagine the equivalent in any other legitimate industry?
 
Hey guys leafs fan in peace...have they come out with anything specific regarding Panarin’s injury? That was an ugly little sequence and just wanted to say sorry to hear you lost your best player out of it...hopefully dude is ok not to
Mention buchnejvich (I know I absolutely butchered his name)

Nothing specific. But it's likely a concussion or some some sort of fracture in his cheek/eye area from where he was bleeding from when his face struck the ice, if I had to guess.

Now they could be totally lying but



Also possible that he further aggravated what ever has been ailing him recently, theres been something as we know hes been taking maintenance days.
 
there's no point in playing him. Or any of the vets.

Lets the kids play. It's garbage time... lets make use of it

Just go all out. Rueschhoff, Richards, Khodorenko, Crawley, Ronning. I'm sure they can call up some under the emergency rule with the injuries we have (since the limit is 4 and we already called up 2)

In the span of 30 seconds, Wilson did 3 separate things that could be worthy of a suspension:

1. Punch Buchnevich in the head (defenseless)
2. Pull Panarin by his hair and body-slam him into the ground, head first
3. Punch Panarin in the head afterwards (defenseless)
 
Yea I just don't know how it would be a lower body.

He got pulled down, could have easily tweaked something on the way down.

It's also possible that the team saw that the season was over and just said "f*** it" and shut him down for the rest of the year (we know something has been bothering him.) Quinn mentioned that he was fine after the game yesterday. If it were any more serious than that, I'm sure we'd know.
