I liked what Sean Avery said yesterday. Run their goaltender, go after one of their skill guys. Send a message
yeah except at no point did they do that.

It has nothing to do with with a potential playoff series. I honestlly wouldn’t mind the isles losing in the 1st round so maybe trotz gets fired.
Even as a caps fan I’m sure you know that Wilson is one of the few guys in the league that intentionally look to injure players. I’m sure he’d think twice if he knew his antics would result in a concussion for one of his teammates.
Wilson doesn't care if you run one of his guys. Are you kidding me. They want to play dirty. To him it's just an excuse for what he does.

Buch running around swinging his stick and cross checking guys heads. Lmfao. Gotta love it. Where is the overreactions from all the fans.? Using your stick as a weapon has to be upsetting right?
Every single hockey fan outside of WSH is laughing about this comment. Do you really think anyone is giving WSH any sympathy? They get what they deserve at this point .Someone could Matt Cooke a WSH player and everyone would say karma. That isn't on everyone else that's on the caps.

If player safety would have done the right thing and suspended Wilson for a while, then this wouldn't have happened. It's not enough though, rangers should be looking to do more damage. Whatever it takes to embarrass the league and put an end to Wilson's reckless ways.
Suspending him wasn't gong to stop it, and the NHL didn't want it to stop. Are you kidding me, hell they were hoping it would be worse. Drive ratings etc...
One thing I know about the supposed DOPS is that they don't care. Ratings over people. What it boils down to in the end is the rangers gave the wrong response. They gave the NHL exactly what it wanted for encouraging this crap. They should have never dropped gloves all over the ice. It's highlight reel stuff, they sit around and go...oh old school hockey 143 minutes in the box ..blah blah blah.
If they wanted to send a message they should have just went out, knee on knee a few guys, run the goalie and been done with it.
But instead they just went out there to boost ratings.
