Phil Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Ain't no one like him (Wilson) in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 That's an instigator. He's the kind of guy who, when he suffers a career ending injury, you smile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravesy Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Oleksiak is a weapons grade cunt. Approved. Tom :clap: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josh Posted December 20, 2018 Author Share Posted December 20, 2018 That’s not an instigator. Oleksiaks gloves are off .0001 seconds after Wilson’s. Both had gloves off before engaging. Oleksiak throws the first punch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravesy Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Oleksiak has a very punchable face, so an instigator would be unfair imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oleksiak throws the first punch. Directly coming across for a fight with a player you're not engaged with isn't an instigator? A player who is deemed to be both the instigator and aggressor of an altercation shall be assessed an instigating minor penalty, a major penalty for fighting, a ten-minute misconduct (instigator) and a game misconduct penalty (aggressor). Fits the bill. Nothing to do with when gloves are dropped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunny Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 That's not an instigator lol Wilson is essentially guilty of playing ten years too late, and not having a single player in the league man enough to handle him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Actually maybe it is after watching again but who cares, he knew they were coming for him and he picked the time and spot. That's smart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with when gloves are dropped. Not sure why people keep posting the wrong rule. Instigator and aggressor are different rules. 46.2 Aggressor ? The aggressor in an altercation shall be the player who continues to throw punches in an attempt to inflict punishment on his opponent who is in a defenseless position or who is an unwilling combatant. A player must be deemed the aggressor when he has clearly won the fight but he continues throwing and landing punches in a further attempt to inflict punishment and/or injury on his opponent who is no longer in a position to defend himself. A player who is deemed to be the aggressor of an altercation shall be assessed a major penalty for fighting and a game misconduct. A player who is deemed to be the aggressor of an altercation will have this recorded as an aggressor of an altercation for statistical and suspension purposes. A player who is deemed to be both the instigator and aggressor of an altercation shall be assessed an instigating minor penalty, a major penalty for fighting, a ten-minute misconduct (instigator) and a game misconduct penalty (aggressor). 46.3 Altercation - An altercation is a situation involving two 46.11 Instigator - An instigator of an altercation shall be a player who by his actions or demeanor demonstrates any/some of the following criteria: distance traveled; gloves off first; first punch thrown; menacing attitude or posture; verbal instigation or threats; conduct in retaliation to a prior game (or season) incident; obvious retribution for a previous incident in the game or season. A player who is deemed to be the instigator of an altercation shall be assessed an instigating minor penalty, a major penalty for fighting and a ten -minute misconduct. If the same player is deemed to be the instigator of a second altercation in the same game, he shall be assessed an instigating minor penalty, a major penalty for fighting and a game misconduct. When a player receives his third instigator penalty in one Regular season, he is automatically given a game misconduct following that third violation. A player who is deemed to be both the instigator and aggressor of an altercation shall be assessed an instigating minor penalty, a major penalty for fighting, a ten-minute misconduct (instigator) and a game misconduct penalty (aggressor). Any request by a Club to have an instigator penalty reviewed and rescinded by the League must follow the same procedure for game misconduct penalties as outlined in 23.2 . distance traveled; Maybe Wilson gloves off first; Wilson - but irrelevant. Gloves came off before engaging first punch thrown; Oleksiak menacing attitude or posture; N/A verbal instigation or threats; Oleksiak has been chasing him for a year conduct in retaliation to a prior game (or season) incident; Oleksiak obvious retribution for a previous incident in the game or season. N/A They were both willing combatants. No one "jumped" the other guy or was the "aggressor" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Exactly, Oleksiak looks like a bitch. He wanted this, he's got 30 pounds on Wilson and he got thumped. It's perfect. I like Wilson more and more everyday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravesy Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 It's during the first shift of the game as well. Looks like one of those proper old school, pre-arranged affairs. Although reduced marks for doing it incorrectly, as the gloves should come off at the drop of the puck. But all is well, as Oleksiak got knocked the fuck out.

Pete Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Yea, he did. Can't wait for someone to give Wilson a McSorely. It will be a great day for the sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirtyONE Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Wilson is fun to watch. I'd love to have someone like him on the Rangers. I like when he lights someone up and I like when someone like Reeves lights him up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LONG LONG LONG TIME FAN Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Oleksiak surely wasn't ready. Gotta be more alert, especially with a guy like Wilson on the ice. Next game between the two teams is in March of 2019. Should be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
