Parsley Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Good for Ovi. Hopefully he can lead them deeper into the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paddynyc Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I don't know how many times they showed the hit last night but I can't tell if it it the shoulder a little before the jaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phillyb Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 That's a clean hit. The outcome sucks. Get out your full cage, Aston-Reese, and play hockey. Tom Wilson might be a thug, but this hit was fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paddynyc Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Tom Wilson having a hearing today I guess the NHL didn't think it was a clean hit or they wouldn't have a hearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillyb Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I hate the suspend-to-injury method of the NHL. I bet if Aston-Reese doesn't break his jaw, nothing is done about that hit. Having a hearing might also be a way to say, "Hey Tom, cool it you fucking idiot. We know this one wasn't that bad, but come on dude...stop toeing the line."

Gravesy Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 The hit is fine. If Aston-Reese doesn’t crouch and hit the breaks it’s never high. Ridiculous if they throw the book at him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Wilson is 6’4. Aston-Resse is 6’0. Reese could throw that same exact hit on Wilson 50 times and would never get a piece of his head. What’s the new rule gonna be? Can’t hit smaller players? Foh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phillyb Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I did finally see an angle that shows the head being hit, whether it was the principal point of contact, avoidable, or if Wilson had any intent, is still up in the air for me. Whatever. Gif - https://gfycat.com/LegitimateDizzyAsiantrumpetfish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morphinity 2.0 Posted May 2, 2018 Author Share Posted May 2, 2018 That's the Pens players' shoulder pad hitting him in the face. Wilson hits his shoulder and drives through, hitting him in the head. But it's definitely not the PPOC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillyb Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Is that right? That's the only angle I've seen that looks "malicious," and I guess if you combine that look with the other angles, sure, you can deduce that's Aston-Reese's pad. I hate this one. This one's tough to call. The dude plays a hard game and toes the line a la Marchand. And as I stated before, that's a clean hit to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
