Two good things happened last night. An uppercut connected with the chin of Wilson.

Then as the linesman was stepping in he got nailed with a straight right hand that may have done some damage.

everyone is entitled to their opinion. frankly stated the "taking the nameplate off" part is total bs.... cause the DOPS ALWAYS makes a statement about "previous player behavior"... so by definition the reputation has to and should be part of it.

for example - if a player runs into a goalie... and that player is Mitch Marner... or that player is Milan Lucic... you're telling me it doesn' matter (horsepoop).

whether Wilson "helped" Buchnevich down to the ice or didn't - he hit him twice with a gloved hand(I won't call it punching because there is a cross section of people, some of whom fit into the lower IQ percentile by default who would argue that this not a punch becaue he has a glove on)... so all he did was hit a completely prone player from behind TWICE in the head. But that's all

the thing with Panarin is ridiculous... he "helps" Panarin remove s his helmt - and then clearly he(Wilson) is just trying to help Artemi to fix his hair by "guiding him gentlely down towards the ice"

I get it.. nothing but good olde time hockey here


bottom line - league look likes clowns who can't or won't manage their own players.

Parros suspending Buchnevich would be fine - if it was an isolated incident - ie.. if the Wilson thing hadn't just happened.... now Parros just looks like a donkey.

How can anyone justify - in any way Edler getting 2-3 games for the knee on knee with Hyman, and Wilson getting nadda. Hyman got a 1 game suspension a couple of years ago for a "sligtly - and I mean slightly" late hit on golden boy McAvoy - obviously not a pre-meditated hit to the head.

League is stupid - setting themselves up for yet another Matt Cooke, where he's going to run around until someone gets really injured. End the stupidity by actually punishing the player and team.

So let's state the obvious: There is a consistency and transparency issue with the DOPS. Under Brendan Shanahan, he put out the videos, he explained what it was, he told you how they reached their verdict. Whether or not you could argue x's and o's about the conclusion was subjective, of course, but they told you how the conclusion was drawn. The punishments seemed to be relatively consistent. Under all DOPS admins since Shanahan departed, there has been less transparency and a general feeling of less consistency and perhaps grumblings of bias. The DOPS must be transparent for it to be understood.

Don't get me wrong - if someone had suspended Tom Wilson for 1 game, I would have felt it wasn't enough. If they had suspended him for 20, I'd have felt that I was getting my pound of flesh. If I objectively look at it the way the DOPS says they do, I don't know if I can actually get my head around more than a 1 game suspension. Remember that they use precedent as a key determining factor, which unfortunately ignores the evolving state of player safety.

NOW, putting your other point in context here: Taking the names off of the jersey when considering the outcome is only used until they decide the outcome. If you decide it's a $5k suspension, that's the max allowable fine, and you've already concluded it's not a game-worthy suspension. It doesn't matter who's name is on the jersey. If you've decided that it's a game-worthy suspension, then you look at the history of the player to determine if you need to mete additional punishment because of their inability to learn.

I am not advocating for this process, I am merely stating that this is how the process is driven. I feel it should change. I feel they should be enabled to create new precedent and move the game forward in terms of safety. But that's not where they are. And that's why this is what it was.

With Parros at the game, I’m sure they were all warned beforehand that it was zero tolerance. You know, for the integrity of the league

Who is Benjamin Crump?

So I was watching a sports feed from some channel on the android box last night. Don't ask what one cuz I have no (frank)ing clue. Clicking on IPTV links will do that to ya. Anyways they were talking about the fine that was issued to Wilson was only for what was done to Buchnevich and that what was done to Panarin wasn't viewed as an infraction at all. Not sure if this is true? But if anyone knows let me know cuz if it is, that's (frank)ed up.

Anyone watching the U18 Worlds?

Is this 15yr old kid Bedard as good as they are saying??

(frank) Wilson, Parros, the Caps, the Rangers, the Habs, the Bruins, the Jets. Let's see, who else? Oh, (frank) McDavid, and the Canucks.

According to Twitter, Parros cancelled his appearance at the game yesterday afternoon.
