Capitals Tom Wilson showed that he intended to be a goon piece of trash again this season by nailing a St Louis Blues player in the head with his shoulder as hard as he could - watch the footage, the Blues guy was slowing down but Wilson was speeding up as indicated by him being just a blur on the video. Apparently the NHL has other ideas in terms of Wilson's attitude because they nailed him with a 20 game suspension to start the regular season off with.
More please on more of the cheap-shot artists. Get these sorts of meatheads under control or quit claiming you're a "professional" league.
I find it funny that the players have been blaming the league for a while now that they get little to no support for multiple concussions and CTE... then they come out to play and do things like this.
I wonder is this idiot will appeal the suspension and if the player union will support him.
That was a cheap vicious hit. The bum should be out of the league
Brad will probably miss a few games too.
Habs are surprising me a bit, pretty much outplaying the Leafs in Toronto before losing in OT and then putting a beating to the Pens. But they still have plenty of time to thoroughly disappoint me before the end of the season.
That sums it up any given year for the fans of about 50 to 60 percent of the teams in the league. It's going to be a long and disappointing season. A very long and disappointing season......
Did you know that the Vegas Golden Knights are the only team in NHL history to go to the playoffs in every single season of their existence?
Makes the Flames feat of going to the playoffs at least once per decade look kind of meaningless in comparison.
I still can’t get over the fact that it’s called the NHL when it clearly isn’t.
