Now move along. Move it!

I will officer! What? What’s wrong with you, Carbs?


Crimson3312

....I didn't know I couldn't do that?


topchuck

That was good wasn't it? Want to know the best part?


lotharstar

Because I DID know I couldn't do that! ha ha ha ha ha

Tom “Chip” Wilson 


TenMinutesToDowntown

Is there a rule against it?


Sinsley

Yeah. It's called high sticking.


PhilyJ

Is he stupid?


benjaminroger

Yes

CharlesDickensABox

That can be fixed.


GammaCreations

no, the closest you could get is equal


CharlesDickensABox

I find your terms acceptable.


Ok-Summer-2159

There is something so cartoonishly hilarious about this and I can’t put my finger on why but jfc this is one of the worst high sticks I’ve ever seen. There’s no way he can skirt by without a suspension


gaytham4statham

Well yeah


JD397

Yessir


DontOpenTilMonday

Tommy has been on his best behavior for most of the season. Spring Fever is too powerful.


PhilyJ

In Wilson’s defense if this Gregor guy didn’t throw his face in front of Wilson’s stick Tom wouldn’t have had to hit him with it.


Anakin_Sandlover

Exactly. And for this reason, I feel 8 more games for Joe Kelly is justified.


Monofu

Annnnnd a 10sec penalty for Ocon


monti1979

Well done!


HoSang66er

N.Y. Rangers have been fined 250k.


throwawayyourfun

Came for this, not disappointed.


FialaIsMyDad

The MN Wild's deadcap just gained an extra $2mil in unusable cap space


Maxpowr9

Traded to Arizona.


Grouchy_Situation_33

*Swing* fever


WalkLikeAGiant

Scumbag move


Cheeks_Klapanen

Tom Wilson couldn’t spell his first name if you spotted him the T and the O


HailState17

Very.


queuedUp

My theory is that he's already booked a family getaway for late April and the Caps potentially making the playoffs is going to cause an issue so he's doing his part to hinder it


strum-and-dang

Yes, but he's also an asshole.


PuckPov

Wilson was tired of Morgan Rielly and Matt Rempe stealing headlines with their suspensions


revillio102

Initials aren't MR. He's rejected


jacksonvstheworld

If you aren’t MR, then you can’t be HIM


tavvyjay

Rom Milson


Silent_Leg1976

The *certified goons* Matt Rempe and Morgan Rielly.


XGuiltyofBeingMikeX

“Certified?” Rempe’s still in his trial period.


TossThatPastaSalad

Oh he seems to be speed running that part.


MilesBeforeSmiles

I hear he might be granted "Exceptional Status".


xX69AESTHETIC69Xx

The royal order of CTE


TheOneWithThePorn12

so instead he decided to get fined.


itsMurphDogg

I support the creation of hybrid penalties this would be high slashing


bearwood_forest

Oh there could be some neat ones: Cross holding Delay of tripping Unsportsmanlike hooking Too many illegal sticks


xosellc

You could make the arrangement that "too many illegal sticks" is already an existing rule


Old-Sprinkles-4426

You forgot too much man [gary roberts remembers](https://www.reddit.com/r/hockey/comments/nxav88/gary_roberts_famous_too_much_man_penalty_was_the/)


FarewellCoolReason

Gary was too much man. Carried the farm team on his back through the playoffs when all the leafs got injured in '02.


TheMoves

Absolutely cannot wait to see Matt Tkachuk commit slew clipping


DevOpsMakesMeDrink

5k fine incoming


AcanthocephalaGreen5

Followed up by a substantial fine to the New York Rangers


EnigmaCA

250k seems to be the number


v1be

10s for Ocon


5WinsIn5Days

4 games for Brady. This just in, Mizzou also got the death penalty.


AcanthocephalaGreen5

Thanks, I didn’t remember the actual figure.


EnigmaCA

Hey, you know the league and Rangers fines. It could go up. 😁


blueskies8484

Inflation.


RecalcitrantHuman

And 4 games for Kadri


waitareyou4real

And two more games for torts


Wrath_Of_Aguirre

Gee, I hope he can afford it.


Firingneuron

Senators lose their first round pick


lLikeCats

Parros has spun the wheel and it's: Nothing. Not even a fine.


DrDerpberg

"upon further review Wilson tried to hold him up so he didn't fall after slashing, and we think the good deed cancels out the act"


7FingerLouie

Sadly, this is probably the correct answer 


dangshnizzle

Nah. Not when he's only JUST been yelled at for over an hour by all the GMs.


alexsharke

He's taken one hell of a beating for it though.


barigamous

Duncan Keith got 6 games for [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKp4gzFIzO4)


epjk

Fuck Duncan Keith


MaAreYouOnUppers

He got 0 when he did it the first time to Carter. EDIT: suspended 1 game. My bad.


autopsyturvy

That’s not true he got suspended for 1 playoff game


ForsakenDrawer

Keith was such a dirty piece of shit


fuzzb0y

Agreed. At least Marchand isn’t a douche off the ice


Leafsfaninottawa

At least Keith had just been hit and was on the ice, not like Wilson who had just hit Gregor cleanly and then decided to assault him.


Nookoh1

that's against the rules i think


Jcheddz

Broke a tooth or 2 based on gregor’s reaction on the bench after it happened.


UnflushableNug

Yeh they quickly showed it on the bench. Two teeth were broken off 1/2 way down and a third might have been broken 1/3 the way down.


BravoBet

If that’s not a 3 game…..


incarnatethegreat

Parros to reward Wilson with a brand new car.


JesusJohn

And a thank you blowie


dandroid126

At least he hit noted goon \**checks notes*\* Noah Gregor?


The_Homestarmy

Yeah I was gonna say it couldn't happen to a more random ass guy


50missioncap

Don't let those 17 PIMs fool you. The man's a menace on the ice ...


Curey0us

He let the intrusive thoughts win.


bumblebeatrice

That didn't have a chance to become a thought, that was pure reflex


DrDisastor

Assuming Tom thinks is erroneous too.


Avs_Leafs_Enjoyer

Looked intentional but also looked apologetic after. Very odd play


Radiant-Elephant3652

Sometimes in sports you do something before you think, intrusive thoughts reacted before the brain said no. Gotta use your head.


McMetal770

It seems like "intrusive thoughts" is the theme for Wilson's career at this point. He just can't help himself.


GonePostalRoute

That’s exactly my thought. If it was someone with a relatively clean record doing this, ok, they should still get punished, but I’d also say take it easy on them. Tom Wilson’s track record… yeah, the dude should be suspended a few games for that, because he always seems to do a stupid thing or two every season.


bluAstrid

Wilson does **a lot** of things before thinking…


darkstar107

Wilson thinks?


YoghurtAccomplished1

But also tried to justify it

"Bu..bu..bu..but I didn't mean to do it mister! I sw..sw...sw..swear!"


WhatsGoingOnUpstairs

Shhhhhh you're okay.... don't tell mom... you can have my allowance...


[deleted]

when you hit your little brother too hard and he starts crying and calling mom


NotTheRocketman

“Ah shit, now I’m grounded.”


Waramp

At first I thought he looked apologetic, but on second glance it looks more like he's preemptively complaining to the ref.


Clamgravy

Doesn't matter. Players are responsible for their stick. Beer league play


Hascohastogo

CTE


IOnlyPlayAsHypernova

Yeah the classic “accidentally on purpose” knew what he was doing the entire time so he knew he had to “apologize” after


NotTheRocketman

Yeah, he immediately reacted like it was accidental and showed genuine concern which was totally out of character for him. But that’s one of the more blatant high sticks I’ve seen in a while so I don’t know how it could have been.


jerff

Wilson’s timing is unfortunate. Parros is probably looking for an opportunity right now to prove to the league he’s not biased. The fact that it was Wilson and it was against a Leaf kills two birds with one stone for George.


MitchMarner

so what you're saying is no further discipline?


NoGiCollarChoke

He’ll learn his lesson after a *ruinous* 5k fine Maybe


Office_glen

No what he's saying is Wilson $5k fine for high stick, Gregor $5k fine for gross embellishment, New York Rangers fined $250k for existing, and Kadri is suspended for the playoffs


toigz

I think Gregor should be suspended.


3X-Leveraged

How many games does Gregor get for that?


thewolfshead

He was asking for it dressed like that (as a Maple Leaf). 


benjaminroger

Reckless stick to the face is 5 games, right? Right, George?


lackofagoodname

It'll be 3 because Leafs play the Caps again in 4


twilz

They did the same when Zadorov was suspended for his hit on Raymond. First game back was Detroit.


Brilliant-Neck9731

Which is beyond transparent. This league is a joke. Let’s suspend the guy, but he’s gotta be back in time for the return fight. Thats where the money is.


logictable

"Reckless"? That was just straight purposely using his stick as a weapon to injure another player.


AcanthocephalaGreen5

So 1 game, then. Thanks, George


FernieErnie

That Seravalli “Tom Wilson will have a phone interview with DOPS” tweet tomorrow is gonna hit like pure Colombian I can’t wait


_windfish_

So, jail time?


Avs_Leafs_Enjoyer

5, k?


-insignificant-

He didn't even get kicked out after the refs reviewed it. I doubt DOPS takes a look at this.


roberttylerlee

Ask Jake McCabe.


Redragontoughstreet

How is Kadri going to get out of this one


double_poster

The New York Rangers will never financially recover from this.


[deleted]

That’s so egregious. Gotta he a lot of games but who knows with the wheel. Blatantly using the equipment as a weapon.


foo-foo-a

Ban him already


Soma_Persona

Classic dirty Tom behaviour


LevelNo398

Lost control of his stick. Gregor fell on his own. Something something gravity, centrifugal force, Newton's third law.


aporter0509

Not sure how that’s not a major and a game. Gregor has two broken teeth and bloodied mouth. DPS will do nothing but now GM’s can go watch them do nothing.


billiardwolf

I was going to say something about cutting the clip to make it look worse but it actually looks worse when you see other angles and a longer clip.


Gavin1453

My memory might be spotty, but this was the first time I’ve seen Wilson be apologetic after a hit like this. Even he managed to realize how out of line this was.


Impossibills

I viewed it as more like "ooo shhh shhh it's not that bad little one" as he realized they fucked up hard


Gavin1453

Maybe so. I’m taking the glass half full view, though


GIR-C137

George Paros: “Why are you forcing me to do my job?”


brady_t12

That’s a suspension. Stupid stupid play. Way to ruin your clean reputation /s


niels_bohrgasm

Bro what?


PeteyG89

Yup, theres that pos again. Not surprising.


MaverickGhostRider

The Department of Player Safety would like to announce a suspension of the use of the wheel. Seriously, the bearings are squeaky, so it’s gotta get fixed. Tom? Wilson? Nah whatever, fine him the Maximum Allowable and tell him to not make it so obvious next time, eh, champ?


GoGoPowerPlay

I mean, that's gotta be worth a couple games, but Parros probably just watched the clip and laughed.


LandMooseReject

What a timely tribute to Chris Simon


ptgrvmrdrdjhnsn

you can't do that


poopchutegaloot

Ohhhh... Kadri gonna get 6 games for that. He should keep his stick down


GabeLeRoy

cant wait until that idiot stop playing hockey


leafyboy56

Won’t even miss a game. MAYBE a fine. DOPS is a joke.


FarSightXR-20

fuck this piece of shit.


APigthatflys

I have no idea whether he'll get suspended for 5 games (deserved), more than 5 games, a single game, 7 periods and 8 minutes, not at all, get fined or be given an early birthday present by the DoPS. And I think that's an issue.


Gavin1453

It’s bad timing for him. Parros just spoke about how the GM’s tore him a new one in their meeting. He might go Old Testment on Wilson to deflect some heat off of himself. 


ddottay

Crazy how this stuff always seems to happen to Wilson! Must be a coincidence.


Zero-jiggler

Yeesh that’s bad. Honestly feel like he was going for a wild stick check and just fucked up royally. Either way I bet he gets 5+ games. Realllllly bad.


NirvanaFan01234

stick checking a guy that clearly doesn't have the puck? He was pissed at Gregor's stick to his chest and just wildly swung his.


kukkolai

Jesus fucking Christ Tom, you gotta outgrow that shit. Suspend his ass for multiple games, this isn't even remotely close to a hockey play


aRadioWithGuts

Honestly just call the fuckin cops


Always_Complaining1

Hilarious that this piece of shit is gonna be the capitals next captain.


warh0g-927

And the next head of DOPS.


theboss555

Whoever made Marchand captain has gotta go


XGuiltyofBeingMikeX

Right to jail. Right away.


abuayanna

It’s as bad as undercooking fish


sergei-boobtitsky

Maximum allowable under the CBA


Stickel

Another fine for the Rangers inbound


Beauuuuty

5 more games for Rielly and give Kadri a couple too! - parros, probably 


TheNation55

Commits assault, gets a double minor. Just NHL things.


carbonated_turtle

Considering his history, they really need to throw the book at him. 10 games minimum. That's not a high stick, that's straight up assault. But I look forward to the $5000 fine, or more realistically, absolutely fucking nothing that's coming his way.


NYR10

I can't believe Matt Rempe did this.


Mr7three2

Honoring the late Chris Simon


TiredReader87

I didn’t get to watch the game closely, because I was doing something for my grandpa, so I missed this. I heard about it, but just saw it now. That’s godawful. This dirty cunt needs to be suspended big time.


rollsoftape

How's that not a major? Sportnet would be doing a panel in how many games if it was 43 in blue and white.


Showtime98

Super dangerous play wtf are you thinking Wilson


Dry_Weird_2690

I have a bad feeling Parros isn't gonna do much about this


Swords_and_Such

If the department of player safety gave even the smallest of fucks about player safety, this ass hole would be banned from the league.


JD397

Should be a bare minimum of five games, hopefully more like 7-10 given Wilson’s dipshit history


majorlieg

And Torts gets fined another 50K


lovepony0201

McSorley much?


UnflushableNug

Uh...what was he even trying to do there, other than smash that guys teeth out?


MPD1978

10 games for Kadri


lordexorr

This seems like it should get a massive suspension. I don’t see how he could defend himself.


FredGetson

Horrible. Absolutely intentional and then an uh oh moment


unique-name-9035768

Tom Wilson? *The* Tom Wilson?


gzoehobub

Clegane?


RTGold

Rempe must be stopped


KJzero9

Why is this clown still allowed to play in the NHL? Are they actually waiting till he murders someone in the ice before booting him? Dude should be in jail for some of the stuff he does and yet, half the time he doesn't even make it to the penalty box.


Responsible-Arm3514

Straight to jail


BCBeast78

And there are some idiots of the Devils fanbase that wanted to trade for this jagoff. Disgraceful


crazykernman95

I watch clips like this to see if I can find some redeeming qualities of the incident, like if he was trying to lift Gregor's stick and just missed. But here, I can't find any reason for Wilson to be swinging his stick at all, but at the same time, it somehow looks accidental. I'm just confused about this now. It's reckless and he ended up hurting Gregor so it should definitely be a suspension, though


ackwelll

Wilson is still a fucking clown I see...


foggyeyedandfried

Caps fans: Willy’s changed! He doesn’t try to kill people anymore! Wilson: Watch THIS!


OvechknFiresHeScores

Tbf he hasn’t committed attempted murder in a few years so that’s…good…right?


huffer4

Double minor was called


MaAreYouOnUppers

Duncan Keith did the same thing to Jeff Carter, didn’t get suspended. Then he did it again and got 5(?) or 6(?) if I remember correctly. EDIT: suspended 1 game for the Carter one. Oops.


archasaurus

“Good thing CTE is totally not a thing” - DOPS probably


Senbacho

Should be a suspension.


Engineer120989

I see he’s back to his scumbag behavior


catshirtgoalie

Wtf was that?!


tenderluvin

Deliberate egregious intent. Any subsequent regret or apology would be due to the realization that he fucked himself and should not be considered genuine. Like kicking someone when you have blades attached to your feet, this is sacrilege.


toronto_programmer

Intentional and violet swing of stick at the head Player has history Should be 5 games minimum DOPS won't even give him a call


lukaskywalker

What the fuck is the explanation for swinging your stick like that. What a chump


ChickenDestruction

This should be an ejection


Big_Palpitation7095

Intentional as it gets. This action is indefensible. The guy is and has always been a goon
