Capitals' Tom Wilson suspended 20 games.
- jimbro83

Repeat offender finally got what he deserved. Maybe if the league had cracked down properly the first time or times, we might have had all the subsequent incidents.

the NHLPA has some pair of balls if they choose to appeal that

and at the same time demand the league do something about concussions
- jimbro83

I'm not saying I think he deserved less, but he has the right to an appeal. If he chooses to appeal the PA has to represent him.

PA will have no choice but appeal based on their role and responsibility to the players. On what basis they base the appeal on remains to be seen. League then can hear the Appel and decline to modify the suspension.

"This is Wilson's 4th suspension in his last 105 games. An unprecedented frequency of suspensions in the history of The Department of Player Safety"

What a line!

I think jimbo's point was more that it's comically-ironic for the PA to appeal it, not that they couldn't/shouldn't/wouldn't

League not messing around this time. He'll appeal and get it knocked down to 10 games.
Odds on another Wilson suspension this season?

The DOPS actually does a good job of explaining the rationale for the length of the suspension:

Well I'm a Wilson fan and think most of the time people just whine about his hits even though they are clean.

I just saw the video of this one and he deserves it. Funny thing is if he just went 1 foot behind him it would have been a fantastic hit.

Hey!! How did you find footage of my game!

Never knew that the DOPS actually issues videos like this. Their analysis/explanation is spot on and completely reasonable. Will be curious to see if the suspension will be reduced...

Here are some fearless predictions:

1) Rangers, Devils and Islanders will be the 6th - 8th teams in the Metro

2) there will be one more trade this season with Boston

now for the fun:

3) eichiefs will have tickets to go to an Islander home game ----- and go to wrong arena!

4) responding to rumors that the Rangers will be trading for Panarin, RangerSaver will write an epic message nearly one full page long. It will only be 4 sentences though...

5) tomburton will respond to RangerSaver with a clever one-liner

6) mdw will win this boards Fantasy Hockey League

7) RangerDanger will eat some hipster 100% organic meatless street meat ------ and LIKE it!

8) dundee will rant on an unprecedented scale and actually get banned

9) Jan will actually bump into one of us this year at a game

LETS GO RANGERS!!

Just wanted to make sure I told you guys to suck it before the season officially starts.
