Let’s just say Tom Wilson needs to be suspended, probably for the rest of this year and next year, at minimum. That the NHL is not doing so is not just disappointing, it is revolting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what Wilson's thuggery has to do with a thread about attending pro hockey games unless in a 'well, if you've seen them in action, this decision is par for the course manner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't want to start one myself though. Posted some non Sabres content to that thread and they probably didn't belong there either. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Man Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Maybe I am the one out of step, but when I watched the video I thought that he was being the aggressor and maybe should be suspended. But I did not see this "horrifying act" that the Rangers were referring to. It looked like many other fights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still haven't seen a good view of it, so could be missing something as well, but yeah, didn't see the intent to drive Panarin's head through the ice. Which is what has Rag Nation apoplectic. Considering he is a repeat offender, surprised he didn't get any games off punching 2 different defenseless players who were laying on the ice. Do agree with those that say that would be criminal anywhere but on the ice; but it was during a game on the ice. Would've expected 4 games, but that would mean he'd miss a playoff game & the league desperately bends over backwards avoiding that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he deserved a game or two, but I agree, I didn’t see much with Wilson taking Panarin down except punching him while he still was wearing gloves. The shot to Buchnevich was more dirty, especially to the back of his head while Wilson’s stick was stuck under his neck. Rangers should take care of business tomorrow. Let’s see if they do or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson grabs Panarin by the hair and slams his head on the ice. If I'm Wilson, I'd hire security given Panarins stature among the Russians.

B-Man Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Huh........ Rangers fire President John Davidson and GM Jeff Gorton: Source https://theathletic.com/news/rangers-fire-president-john-davidson-and-gm-jeff-gorton-source/0TNnqFuSTisz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snafu Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Wow! Davidson was only there for two years (with 2020 sandwiched in). Now the Rangers get effin Drury -- who I've never liked (yeah yeah, I realize that's not the popular take). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taro T Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 But, but, the canning of Davidsson & Gorton had NOTHING to do with their reaction to the Wilson incident. LOL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
