Wilson is a repeat offender with a long history of these type of acts and we find it shocking that the NHL and their Department of Player Safety failed to take the appropriate action and suspend him indefinitely. Wilson’s dangerous and reckless actions caused an injury to Artemi Panarin that will prevent him from playing again this season. We view this as a dereliction of duty by NHL head of player safety, George Parros, and believe he is unfit to continue in his current role.

siddious Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I am expecting this so that I am not disappointed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirtyONE Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I'll be shocked if the Rangers have any response at all. Basically all their vets are out. I don't know how they can possibly respond in any meaningful way. I think they'll lose again, further continuing the narrative that they need to make some meaningful changes this summer to actually compete with these teams.

Sharpshooter Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 So if they indeed lose out, could their draft positioning move up at least? That would be a little bonus. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichieNextel305 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Love the lineups, but gotta edit it and put Cloutier in net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4EverRangerFrank Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Frankly, I don’t see anyone outside of Smith who could possibly, potentially, maybe exact revenge. Prediction: Lots of ‘pushing and shoving’ with us hitting them with our purses many times. “Bad Capitals - take that!” *said with pouty-face* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be some theater to appease the fans and be able to feel like "we did something!". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 So everyone gonna tune in to watch Rangers retaliate on national TV? Yeah, this is not gonna end well. They'll send one guy (prob Smith) to the slaughter. He will get his head knocked in while the Rangers players taps their sticks against the boards and Wilson smiles away into the penalty box again. Probably gonna lose the game 4-1 aswell. I would love to see everyone go batshit crazy with high sticks, cross-checks, elbows and what not, but they're all too scared for what will come their way.

phillyb Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I think forfeiting the game sends a much larger message if that's what they want to do. Their intent is to change the league with that statement, not the Tom Wilson's of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I probably should have just left the 'if' out. lol Well, hopefully they get a bit higher draft pick even if it isn't an overly deep draft supposedly.

I'm sure the players want to go out and play. Can't set a precedent for forfeiting games when calls don't go your way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpshooter Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Forfeiting would look even worse, especially after they just called out the entire NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only move that's a bigger pussy move than that is going back out there and not doing anything...getting ragdolled and beat up all over the ice again. I also posed the forfeit option in another thread under the premise that if they don't have the balls to answer the bell, just forfeit. At least send a message to the league that way if you won't do it on ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
