    Obviously this is illegal and deserves to be called. But it’s really annoying watching professional tough guys flail around after something like this, then go get in an actual fight and shrug off a dozen punches to the head.

    Didn’t look too sneaky to me but I guess the ref didn’t see it. Like they see anything to make the right call anyway…

    I’m all for physical play, and giving guys like Wilson their just due. But to do it with an elbow like that? Not a fan. I really dislike Tom Wilson, but this isn’t the way.

    Caps fan.

    Honestly, he was due, though.

    He hit Kuch in the back previously.

    This is playground fight stuff.

    Kucherov is a dirty player that gets away with a lot. Ended Guhleā€™s season with a hit from behind with no repercussions.

    Injured Kaiden Guhle last week, par for the course

    Looks like Wilson getting a taste of his own medicine to me. Never forget the pendulum swings both ways

    Sure hope he’s OK…you can really hurt your elbow using it like that.

    As noted above, Willy had croschecked Kuch just as egariously earlier in the shift. The Caps feed even showed it on replay, allowing their announcers to shut up and move on. Good on stripes letting them play through it

    If one shithead elbows another shithead in the forest can you hear Matthew Tkachuk whine to the refs?

    Reap what you sow, Tom, you dirty motherfucker.

  12. Diagalon1

    Couldnt of happened to a more deserving player

  13. slimobirdass

    Couldnā€™t happen to a better guy than Wilson

  14. Normally Iā€™d be giving Kucherov shit for being a dirty player but I think taking out Tom Wilson just moved him up my Hart ballot.

    Tom Wilson deserves this. And every other elbow to the chops that he gets in the future.

    Not hard enough. Tom Wilson had/has it coming.

  17. Puzzleheaded-Dingo39

    Wait, I’m supposed to feel bad for Tom Wilson???

  18. Kalmah2112

    Dirty and intentional as shit, but I’m conflicted as it’s against wilson. Seeing him get hurt makes me a little happy.

    Someone please post the same clip with the previous 15 seconds included

    Tommy and Nick Cousins both get their comeuppance in the same night, you really really hate to see it.

  21. Bleunuit1

    Faked an injury again. Give him a 10 rating on that one.

  22. althor2424

    Couldnā€™t have happened to a cleaner player with a sterling reputation for fair play and sportsmanship. I hope Kucherov gets a lifetime ban for such a horrendous actā€¦

  23. Melodic-Pangolin8449

    Wilson’s 6 foot 4. Why is his head low enough for Kucherov to hit? He’s put himself in a vulnerable position there.

    I dislike both players but Wilson’s just a goon who enjoys ending careers and seasons. Kucherov is dirty but he’s undoubtably one of the most skilled players.

  24. Revolutionary_Area51

    good, Wilson’s swung his stick at a dudes face a couple weeks ago… karma…. guys a scum bag

    Between this and the cousins hit, it was a good night in the NHL yesterday
