Tom Wilson episode against the Rangers

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

LOL here we go again...

I’d cry of laughter if roles reversed and see caps fan react to this

 

[ckg927]

Where is Wilson’s stick in all of this? Are there better angels than this?

Wilson could be looking at a playoff suspension with this move.

PLAYOFF suspension? How about a LIFETIME suspension?

 

[Svechhammer]

Tom Wilson toes the line often. Most of the time you can excuse it for some twisted justification of him making a hockey move.

There was no hockey move here. This was straight up garbage. One of the dirtiest moves I've seen in this league in a while. For a guy like him with a history, his ass needs to be sat for a very long time.

 

[Acesup]

At the very least he should be suspended for the rest of the year and the entire playoffs. Just ridiculous.

Slow down he doesn't play for the leafs.

The league is a freaking joke for letting this psychopathic clown continue to pull his stunts. Maybe they will do something substantive after he ends someone's career or paralyzes them. His crap tonight should end his season, at minimum. He's a great player, but a disgrace to the sport. f*** him.

 

[MarkMessyay11]

One of these days (if he's allowed to play again in the league) someone will give him a taste of his own medicine. Blindside hit the head and end his career. No one will shed a tear and the game will go on because everyone knew it was only a matter of time before karma caught up to him.

Hopefully Brendan Smith reads this post between periods. I'll start a gofundme to cover his fines and/or legal costs.

I’m a Caps fan that has been critical of Tom Wilson. There is not a chance he gets suspended for anything tonight.

Thus far anyway.

 

[Chips]

Pretty sure I saw he had an axe too

 

[MattMartin]

You know it's quite a accomplishment when you can get Islander, Ranger, Penguin, and Bruin fans to all agree on anything hockey related. I'm sure I left out a bunch of other fan bases that loathe him as well.

 

[Dr Quincy]

Ok then be prepared to get slammed if you jump on someone's back. Or don't step in

Yeah, that's a completely ridiculous standard that the league doesn't use.... but you go and pretend that it matters.

 

[FireGerardGallant]

The worst part of this is he's still in the game. Hell be back in the 3rd where he's going to try and Murder someone again

 

[Leafs at Knight]

Yea this guy should not be in the league, complete psycho and dangerous.

 

[McDrai]

I'm afraid that the NHL is going to keep giving Wilson a slap on the wrist until he ruins someone's career like Todd Bertuzzi. If and when that happens, the NHL is going to have a lot of angry players and fans saying "I told you so."

 

[axman15]

Only people I’ve seen defending him are Caps fans - I think that says a lot about how the rest of the league is done with Wilson’s antics. I’m all for physical play, but this guy is a cheap shot artist on skates.

Its under Buch's neck.

What a loser

I think every fan base hates him except Caps.

This is exactly right.

Yes. Here we go again. Reflect on that.

 

[bov]

Makes me wonder about his pregame routine sometimes, playing the way he plays and being such an energetic, moody character. The worst thing about Wilson is that he can actually fight, otherwise we wouldn't be seeing this stuff year after year.

 

[PenguinSuitedUp]

Wilson’s such a good guy off the ice, so I’m going to need better evidence than him ramming a guy’s head into the ice before you can convince me he should be suspended.

 

[Beau Knows]

At some point you don't deserve to play in the league anymore. Cooke and Torres reached that level, and Wilson has joined them.

 

[Shesty31]

This was cringe worthy

Nothing quite solidifies you are actually a sociopath like flexing in the penalty box with your jersey off after cheapshotting three different players.

 

[Fitzy]

I think prepare to get slammed is fair.

Question is whether flipping Panarin around when he's helmetless is reckless. I can't evaluate Wilson's intent, obviously, but It was a very dangerous situation.

 

[Acesup]

Yeah he should be kicked out of the league. He drove a guy's head into the ice and then threw a sucker punch. It shouldn't take a dude stretcherd out for a major suspension.
