Tom Wilson Charging Curtis Lazar: but was it a charge?
Tom Wilson of the Washington Capitals has thrown his share of questionable or even downright dirty hits. Was this charging on Curtis Lazar one of them?
Perfect display of a CHARGE boys and girls I got a penalty in Pee Wees!! Slammed the poor kid. Back then I was to young to even know it was a penalty. This guys a GOON!! And always getting away with stuff. Same game cross check to Taylor Hall on his goal. I hope Boston takes care of business in Boston. No more OTs series 3-1 return to wash em up
They don't call it as much as they should. That was a charge based on the classic definition (more than two strides) but maybe the rule has been changed. With the speed of modern players and concussion awareness it should be changed again.
