They should have given him the Torres treatment IMO. Didn’t they give him a 20 game suspension for his hit to the head of Oscar Sunqvuist? This asshole doesn’t learn.

He has plenty of time to prevent such action, so most of people assume he intended to do so. I don't disagree the penalty but need consistency. The difference is that he's a multiple time repeat offender and he isn't changing the way he plays. I think that considering that, he didn't get enough of a suspension. The NHL wants to get more serious about protecting people's heads and long term health, and for good reason, so they need to get more serious about protecting people's heads and long term health. I've played contact sports I know what it's like in the heat of the moment. Stuff happens. It's a physical game. So if it is a rare bit of over-enthusiasm then no it doesn't merit a long suspension but this isn't that. Wilson is a consistently dirty player who doesn't respect his opponents at all and he has already been fined and suspended multiple times. He just doesn't get it. He refuses to adjust his game. He deserves a longer suspension if not to be shown the door. Go Canucks Go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cuporbust Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Not enough. Not kidding. The only joke was Ovechkin saying the suspension was a joke. Both the hit, and the comments made about it were idiotic. Wilson should not be playing in the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toyotasfan Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 If you have a guy like this on your team , a Wilson , Torres, Cooke , Etc . It’s not even a bad thing for them to do this once a season to instill fear in other teams defence of what might be coming for them. I heard Chara say that in an interview once and to a degree it’s true. It’s called intimidation. It’s been part of hockey since the beginning and like it or not it will probably be around for awhile. Say whatever you want about Wilson, if he was a UFA today every team in the league would want him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianRugby Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Go cry Bruins. Maybe you can get the NHL to hire one of your player's dad to be head of officiating again. Marchand complaining about dirty hits is the epitome of irony. Karma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKNuck96 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 I don’t like the bruins as much as the next person but those saying this was to hard need to go take another look at the hot. It’s only targeting the head, directly into the board, with a hit that wasn’t necessary. It’s the type of hit that is trying to injure and remove a player from the game. 7 games I think is a lower end of what I would want for this. I also don’t agree with lowering suspensions for shorter seasons. If it’s a 2 game suspension in an 82 game season it should be a 2 game suspension regardless. That means if you want to do something stupid in a condensed season - tough. Means that it doesn’t slide the lower one game ones to fines and keeps the players safer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someday the league will start fining and suspending Tkachuk for those not subtle slew foots. I think the league should make a preemptive rule about intentional cuts with the skates.

I wonder if they looked at it, after Karlsson received his achillies cut. If I'd been on the end of the smear job Melynk did on Cooke, I'd have sued that guy broke.
