Nothing Tom Wilson does is "routine" for the NHL in 2021.

 

[haveandare]

People keep saying this. Please tell me the last time any player was grabbed by their hair and thrown to the ice without a helmet. Then tell me when that’s happened to an actual star player.

 

[egelband]

Let’s let this topic die...

 

[mcsauer2738]

People who are getting worked up by this Simply arent familiar with the game

 

[Rangerboy030]

A single podcast named for spitting out broken teeth hosted by hockey dudebros thinks what Wilson did was fine.

Whatever.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Wish the Rangers can purge some fans.

You started the thread to try to troll people. Do you think you're too clever that people don't realize that?

 

[rangers1314]

God bless you if you can still sit through this boring ass podcast.

I'd rather have Tom Wilson throw me off a bridge than have to listen to RA.

One of the most listened to podcasts in the world and the top hockey podcast run by guys who played in the show. Yeah nbd. You know more

Their reactions would be vastly different if it was David Pastrnak being thrown to the ice, specifically RA and Grinnell.

It's whatever, they have some incredible interviews and content but they are loudly wrong sometimes.

Do we have to go over the endless examples of the most popular versions of X thing not being high quality?

You and them can have an opinion. Other people can disagree. The idea that anyone who disagrees with you is doing it out of ignorance is silly.

That's a bunch of bullshit. There are plenty of people who have been watching this game a long time who were upset by what happened.

 

[WojtekWolski86]

I mean Tom Wilson is their boy and they have the luxury of expressing their opinion knowing that Panarin isn't seriously hurt.

If you expected them to have a non controversial opinion or rail on Wilson than you haven't listened to them much.

 

[rangers1314]

I'm sure they also talked about Wilson being a "man rocket" and how he "gets the boys fired up".

The irony considering a couple days ago you said you barely watch the NHL anymore.

I wouldn't even give those two beer leaguers who share a braincell a thread on this board.

Never sat down and listened to the thing, never will.

They're both violently unfunny old men.

 

[Crease]

I said the same thing a week ago. I don't think this is a hot take. My issue with the scrum is that there was no reason for it, beyond the fact that Wilson is a mongoloid who dials it up to a 11 after the whistle because just playing the game of hockey is apparently too boring for him. Up to that moment, there was absolutely no tension between the teams and the game was a snoozefest. Buchnevich pokes after a loose puck in the crease--and here we are one week and 100 PIMs later discussing the culture of the sport. Again, in a vacuum the scrum was fine. Just no reason for it and that's my issue with Wilson.

How do you know it’s not funny if you’ve never listened?

Practically everything connected to barstool borders on the juvenile and spittin’ chiclets included.

McDonalds sells the most hamburgers by a wide margin.

I haven't eaten one since 1989 because they're poison and I feel like freeze dried dog shit 10 minutes after I eat one.

 

[Machinehead]

Existing in the hockey world, you see samples of their content, but I've never actually sought out an episode of it and I wouldn't.

Bissonnette picks fights with people so he can tell them he played in the NHL and Whitney has been telling people they're triggered for the last seven years.

If you want to listen to two bros who used to be mediocre athletes have the same conversation over and over again, you could sit in any bar and get it with less arrogance and alcohol on standby just in case.

Again arent you the guy who says he hasn’t watched hockey in years

In almost all my posts on the matter I also said it was Wilson CLEARING THE CREASE. His crosscheck on Buchevnich was poorly placed but everything else about it was completely clean. Panarin jumped in and got ragdolled - his own fault. Strome jumped in and got ragdolled - his own fault.

The truth is the hands in the face and crosschecks to the chest/back happen multiple times a game...Wilson just messed his crosscheck up a bit AND SHOULDVE GOTTEN 1 GAME.

The way NYR handled the situation was a travesty. Like a JV highschool team...all emotion and zero ration. They tried to jump Wilson and failed. They pleaded with the public for support (and got it) only to turn around the next game and do EXACTLY what they said was WRONG.

BTW Buchevnich crosscheck on Mantha was WORSE than Wilson on Buchevnich. Hopefully Wilson has a chat with Buchevnich next year
