Damn Torts benching my face off guy Coots is killing me in fantasy right now, come on ffs.
Should be a fine against wilson, its been more than a year, hes not as repeat offender.
The Wilson play looked like an actual no-thought brainfart, especially given how he reacted to it.
They seriously need to throw the book at Wilson. I'd understand if this was a once-in-a-blue-moon thing, but Wilson's got a rap sheet longer than the Leafs' cup drought. To call him a repeat offender would be an understatement, and it's about high time that the DoPS made examples out of players like him who seem to play hockey for the sole purpose of crunching heads.
I'm sorry you said Tom was reckless no it was more than reckless you could see it in the video and where is the puck. I'm sorry you are 1,000 percent wrong. A minimum you should get six pause with his history of violence in the game 6 minimum
6-10 for Wilson.
The key for the PWHL is to know what it is. If ticket prices rise and merrch becomes insanely expensive. it means they have lost their way. It will NEVER be an NHL competitor, it will max out at a top tier competitive outlet for womrn. No shame in that, but the slower, less physical nature will always mean its very different, and in some waus more limiyed. The bisiness model needs to reflect that, bpth now and moving forward
Wilson can't help himself. He's dirty, and no amount of effort to play clean is enough. He is who he is. Give him 15-20 games, and next time give him a year. He's eventually going to kill someone (not on that play, but plenty of others).
The media doesn't need to know what Torts is saying or Coots is saying. They can talk to each other.
I'm a Leafs fan and even I believe Wilson had a brain fart. He went to Gregor right away trying to apologize. No intent there.
They absolutely HAVE to put a women’s team in Memphis and call them the Memphis Belles.
Time for your wife to become The Hockey Girl to cover PWHL games 😀
Obviously as a Caps fan, whatever I said here would be considered as absolute dogsh*t and merits nothing, but still wants to put my worthless 2 cents here. When people accuse a player of being intentional, it's way too vague. What is intentional? What is the intent? For example, aligning a big hit to a player with puck and heads up looking at you right in the shoulder is an intentional play, but if during the process, the opposite player unfortunately tripped and fell and somehow you checked him in the head, that is not an intentional hit to the head. People are just shouting "intentional" all the time without even thinking what is intentional. Everything on hockey is intentional, if you are not intentionally moving your body, it's called sleepwalk. All in all, do I think Wilson intentionally used his stick to slash the opponent? Absolutely yes. Do I think he intentionally aimed for the head and tried to chop off two teeth? Absolutely no. Looks like a two game suspension sounds about right. Which is still a pretty big impact on the team and the player during this stretch of the season right in the middle of a long home-stand.
What Torts should do is throw out every scumbag reporter who keeps asking the same dumb questions. He’s already answered it
If Wilson gets more than two games, then it's all for past crimes.
Tom Wilson in trouble???
WOW… quelle surprise!
Wilson's stick swing was deliberate and absolutely despicable. If you look at the video it's a solid Intent to injure. It's not even up for debate. Give the idiot 10 games and have him pay for new teeth for Gregor.
I hope Wilson gets 10 games plus, that's one of the most insane high sticks I've seen in 18 years of watching NHL, pure golf swing into the face.
No stupid TV blackouts for the girls! and it's not bad hockey either. I may be somewhat biased as I have coached girls for 12 or so years so I want too see woman's hockey do well as it gives the girls I coach at the youth and high school level something to dream about and shoot for.
Would be nice if the NHL gives Wilson a big long suspension for this. I want 10+ games because he's gotten away with way too much in the past few years. I'm expecting only 2 unfortunately, but should be 10+ based on his reputation alone.
How is Wilson getting an in-person hearing but Trouba was a 5K fine for a freaking baseball swing to Frederic’s head 🤷♂️??
Wilson gonna get big,suspension
Pwhl wait 3 years, you'll see
I am so happy people are supporting pwhl, its good hockey. My daughter will have the opportunity to play pro if she dedicates her time and is good obviously, not just university and thats it
It's just sad for Couturier because he's lucky he came back from his injuries at all. He's likely going to win the Masterton, and this is the situation he's in now. I don't think Tortorella wanted a captain this year, especially in Sean.
0:13 Spring's here? Come out to Ontario Shannon. We're supposed to get a massive snowstorm tonight.
8:10 So this is my thoughts but I think the reason the PWHL is so popular is because there are women who are hockey fans and want to have a sport to watch for women and not just male players but female players.
A great thing the PWHA is doing is streaming the games on YouTube
First step for the PWHL is to come up with team nicknames. I don't think you want to go too long with just city names for your teams if you're the league committee. That's what they should do before they think of expanding. Don't necessarily need team logos yet, just nicknames.
Wreckless???? WTF? He calked back on the stick. That = intention. He KNEW exactly what he was intending on doing. There’s even an angle of him looking straight at Gregors face on the follow through. Some people are really fooled by his reaction. I mean what on earth did you think he was trying to do?
Columbus says they want an experienced GM but unless they’re also referring to Assistant GM’s as “experienced” the list they’re talking about doesn’t seem like it would be particularly long, as for potential “experienced GM” candidates.
Tom Wilson doing something stupid and dangerous? Surely that's a first . .. . .. … .
hoping that Indianapolis gets a PWHL team!
Elvis is headed towards a buyout more likely then a trade. Can’t see anyone wanting him at 5.4 for the next 3 years when the free agent crop of goalies is massive this summer combined with other goalies under contract that are rumored to be on the move like Markstrom
Bull crap you are full of it. Wilson knowingly and willingly swung his stick at the face of an opponent. Stop your GD crap.
The two big reasons I have watched many PWHL games this year are that it is good hockey, and it is free to watch online. The NHL lost me with high costs and endless blackouts. The PWHL is making inroads to folks like me who just want to enjoy a good game, but I don't have deep pockets.
Eastern Teams just like to play physical hockey against the Leafs. Think that is what Wilson was trying to do.
Then he realized immediately that hitting him in the face was physical- but over the line.
It was just like Morgan’s stick attack from behind the guy’s back to the head in Ottawa. My guess is Wilson gets a 5 game suspension as Morgan did. 😀
Yay, Spring is here. That means that here in Minnesota we're getting a foot and a half of snow this weekend.
