Tom Wilson hit Noah Gregor, and then in the aftermath his stick swung around and hit Gregor across the mouth. Hard. Wilson immediately hugged Gregor and appeared to check to see if he was ok, and he suggested to the ref it was accidental. Was this an accident or was there intent? Have your say!

IIRC Zack Kassian got 8 games for a similar slash and pretty sure he had less of a history than Wilson.
why couldn't Wilson do that to Kyrou
Insane how the refs reviewed this and only gave a double minor lmao. NHL is beyond hopeless.
What an idiot. Is he part Marchand?
Wilson has no being in the NHL. “Player Safety Board “ is out of Orwell’s 1984. They will probably write him a check.
Well, this isn't a tough call.
Minimum 10 games.
Repeat offender that just does not understand.
Anyone that says this is accidental is royally fucked it’s unbelievable how he swung that thing and no reason to do it
Tom WIlson is a psycho
6 games
So ovious it was done on purpose
These are the players that needs to go. Not the enforcers. Hockey needs enforcers because of lose cannon sociopaths like Wilson
I'm not a Leaf fan…gotta say that right off the bat. This guy makes me sick. This is the lamest effort I've ever seen of a guy doing something on purpose but pretending it was an accident that I've seen since my sons were 4 years old. I don't know how old Wilson is but if he plays much longer he's probably going to either kill someone or take an eye out. As far as I'm concerned, he ought to be suspended for 40 games. The NHL needs to make a statement that individuals such as this are not welcome in the league. He's a threat to player safety on a level that we've not seen in 20 years. If someone pisses him off he's not capable of containing his emotions and that is the definition of a threat.
Jeez man
George Parros was named the Senior Vice President of NHL Player Safety in 2017…… Upon being promoted, Parros said, "What uniquely positions me for the job is that I played the game as physically as anybody and I never once was fined or suspended." Parros plans on renewing emphasis on slashing and other "nonhockey plays."
He's an arch criminal
Needed reeves out there for this game
🙈🙈 ok now that I see it. Wtf dude… lmfao what a snek
This is no way trying to justify the very obvious high stick. 10 games should be a minimum.
Wilson clearly went brain dead and reacted in a super brain dead way.
Then suddenly realized how utterly stupid he was.
Again not a justification. Just an observation of the moment.
Rat
Tom Wilson doing Tom Wilson things.
Ouch hope Gregor is ok!!
Gutless
that's insane! not a hockey play at all, and clearly intentional. Sickening.
Should be more than 6 games… crazy.
WTF is WRONG with this guy, other than being a psycho .???… One of these days, he's hopefully going to get a double-dose of his own medicine….
There should have been a more significant suspension here. That was clearly with malicious intent. Tom Wilson has a spirit that he can't resist and its name is called uncontrolled anger. This guy has issues.
Fake news. AI generated.
Intent ? That was an assault.
Wilson is just misunderstood
Riley gets 6,games for his incident Wow.Wilson got off way to easy.
Draymond would have got 1 game. 10k fine – NBA
6 games isn't enough for this repeat asshole
I’d say charged with Assault.
It says „tough call“. Well, not really.
Noah Gregor got checked hard into boards Nice Hit! Gregor then speared Wilson with his stick blade!! Wilson retaliated with a strong Left Hook with stick in hand Parlaying Gregor's Face. Tit for Tat and a Then some. In this Soft nhl we now have Gregor 2min spearing Wilson 4 Min major and end of his night. Then Gary BUTTMAN can do his Crap "PERIOD" PS-Wilson is Something
There is a fine line between tough play and assault. Wilson crossed it.
Charge him with assault
Reward for the prick with the stick: Capitols said they intend to make him captain, the face of the team, when Ovechkin goes.
And 1game later the hurricanes POS goalie intentionally kicks the caps #74 to the ice and receives absolutely no discipline. And the pylon Refs are standing right there watching it.
Tom just thought it had been too long since he reminded everybody he’s still the biggest piece of trash in the league
6 games was not enough. 20 games this is bullshit
Ok I also agreed that it should be suspension and fine, but I read a comment saying Wilson was going for a stick slash on McGregor’s stick, but McGregor was too fast and he ended up hitting McGregor in the face instead.
I’m just painfully optimistic that Wilson might actually feel remorse this time, but it’s probably not the case
Wasn’t Tom doing so well??? I thought he calmed down ? He’s in reverse now !!!
6 games. Unfortunately the best sport of the major four is a fuching joke
2 minutes for whipping
I can’t believe this guy is still allowed in the NHL. SMFH
2024 and this guy is still a recidivism goon. 25 game suspension should have been awarded, as should a steep fine. If these guys aren’t deterred by money, then so be it. 250K fine. Think again or just get out of the league before someone’s career is cut short. Classless.
i fucking HATE tom wilson
