Sad news. My thoughts are with the Gretzky's. Coincidence but it's just a couple days after they knocked down the old Wayne Gretzkys bar.

I've lived most of my life not too far from Brantford and I've never heard of anybody that had a bad experience with him. It's so rare to find people that everyone likes.

I'm many ways he was the quintessential Canadian that we all like to portray. Very kind and very generous
 
Blackhawks are surprisingly good. With Seabrooks retirement and those $ becoming available and Kane playing as well as he is I wouldn't be surprised if they throw the rebuild out the window. If Toews comes back they could be a force this year.

He'll just go on LTIR until the contract runs out. Hopefully he can overcome his injuries and enjoy the rest of his life.
 
Jim Benning has mentioned the pandemic at least 3-4 times during his presser to explain the issues the Canucks have.  Apparently the pandemic only affects Vancouver.

I dunno, maybe he shouldn't be playing right now?

He's played in 4 games since his bout with Covid, averaging 21:34 a game. In one of those games he played over 24 minutes. And his coach is basically talking about how it's a miracle he can even skate.

So glad Wilson isn't in the Leafs division, particularly with this DOPS.

Yeah but the Leafs need to be tougher so that guys like Wilson don?t cheap shot....checks notes....Boston

Good to see the Bruins shove it down his throat with 3 goals on the PP
 
Tom Wilson has scored 50 goals since he signed his new deal for 2018.

Since that signing, Wilson was suspended 20 regular season games (2018) that an arbitrator cut down to 14 after he served 16 games, so he's up quite a bit on my prediction that he'll have more suspensions than goals for the lifetime of the contract. Sounds like there's some catching up coming.

Just get him out of the fucking league already. This is insane.

7 games.  I think the approach of giving him lesser punishment for repeat offenses is a good one
 
The thing about people defending Wilson that I'll never get is that despite all the quibbling about what makes for a legal vs. illegal hit and "did he wait .5 seconds to hit him or .7 seconds" or did he intentionally target the head or whatever is that it's clear that Wilson is the kind of player who either intentionally tries to hurt people or plays so recklessly that he doesn't care if he hurts people and I just cannot for the life of me understand anyone who thinks that's something that should be in the game.
