  1. What's really frustrating about this if you're a Capitals fan is that the other 4 Caps players were up the ice trying to put a play together and get back in the game, and were stopped due to Wilson being undisciplined. Shame.

  2. Hey guys, remember when some of you said caps in 4?
    Yea, I'm giving you this one chance to eat those words, lmaooooooo

  3. After watching this twice, i have no clue what did Wilson do worth more than two minutes for roughing?

  4. He got 2 minutes for roughing, aswell as 10 minutes unsportsmanlike, not a game misconduct.

  5. caps are the definition of a joke. having won 3 president trophies in last 7-8 years, being considered as N1 contender and never even pass the second round. that's a definition of joke right there my friends, and losing crucial game 2 against biggest rivals with a score 6-2 😀 that's a joke. I realize right now that being arizona fan is less frustrating than being a caps fan.

  6. So Bonino grabs Wilson but doesn't get a holding penalty?? The favoritism is real folks. Gotta give the refs a star in this one.

  7. Damn, I know it's not over yet, but I think the Leafs really took a lot out of the Caps in the 1st round. Hahaha!

  8. Questionable reffing, that was a good hit. Bonino should have gotten 2 for holding and Wilson 2 for taking the bait and roughing.

  9. clean hit. shoulda took them both off. Bonino went into Wilson's face after a clean hit. stupid of Wilson to take the bait. Trotz plays his fourth line way too much.

  10. so in Verizon Center when someone gets hit they go ohhhh but in Rogers Place everybody goes crazy for a hit

  11. Don't really get this call. Clean hit on the puck carrier. The shenanigans while the play up is the ice should've been 2, but a game misconduct, I don't see it.

  12. Silly Wilson. Wilson got a game misconduct because you are not allowed to hit any penguins players in any situation. Page 52 Rule 1C, " A player who initiates contact with a pittsburgh penguins player will be penalized." Everyone should know that by now.

  13. All these caps fans are confused, but when Wilson lifts his right shoulder and both skates to check is head (face) with a clear intent to injure that is considered a game misconduct penalty.

    "For a violation of this rule, a major penalty shall be assessed (see 48.4).
    (48.4) Match Penalty – An automatic game misconduct penalty shall be assessed whenever a major penalty is assessed under this rule. " (the rule regards a lateral or blindside hit to the head.)
