Not justifying it, but id bet that will be his explanation Yeah, you can see Wilson's head snap back a little because Gregor's stick was close to hitting him. Doesn't justify the action or anything, but looks like that's what happened here. ^Here it looks like he's swinging for the lower body Here you can see his head snapped back a little and his hand goes higher at the same time, making so the stick the flies straight up. I don't know why I'm trying to defend Tom Wilson but his reaction seemed honest and even if he might be the biggest a-hole in the league, I don't think he would do something like this on purpose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregor's stick tapped Wilson's chin if you watch the replay (or close to). Wilson swung that baby with intent to smack him hard but I'll agree, he most likely didn't mean to hatchet him in the face. https://twitter.com/Sportsnet/status/1770858978802651611?ref_src=twsrc^tfw|twcamp^tweetembed|twterm^1770858978802651611|twgr^6a09c739147bd83bfcc35ba35a43b01f844e29fb|twcon^s1_c10&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thescore.com%2F Edited March 22 by jsm7302 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksBurner Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 (edited) Each game suspended carries about the same weight of being suspended for a playoff game. The Caps are right on the playoff bubble. 3 points out, but 2 games in hand. Edited March 22 by BrooksBurner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess he'll appeal he's got nothing to lose, except the appeal. Damn it though I wish he was ours in the past. Still think he deserved what he got even if he were wearing red and blue now.

Sod16 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Wouldn't mind seeing the Caps miss the playoffs by one point and having it be on Tom Wilson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing the Caps in round 1 would be a dream come true. They are held together with bandaids. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
