What this do es show is that we are not the only idiots giving absolutely absurd contracts out...there are some contracts here that are beyond mind-boggling. Philly alone have some really bad deals with Hayes being at the forefront. And they forgot Letang on Pittsburg who is at "only" $7.25Mil for another 4 long years! I also see Corey Perry at a absurd $8.25mil!!! The list goes on and on...heck we are not anywhere near as bad as many other teams to be honest (in fact we will be sitting pretty good for next year and if KO retires we'll be even better) This is some rather dated information. Letang only has 1x7.25mil after this year. And Perry is now on a cheap contract with MTL 1

Eleven Posted May 4, 2021 Report Posted May 4, 2021 Just now, Hoss said: I have no doubt that if Wilson played for Arizona or some other nearly-forgotten team, that he'd have a 40-game by now. Even on the Sabres.
Norcal Posted May 4, 2021 Report Posted May 4, 2021 3 minutes ago, Hoss said: The Rangers did not appreciate that. He could have killed Panarin if his head hit the ice there. Wilson was clearly out of control and needs a year long suspension.
Curt Posted May 4, 2021 Report Posted May 4, 2021 3 minutes ago, Hoss said: That was a dumb, pointless thing to do, leaning on top of a guy laying on the ground and give him a punch for no reason. It’s not the kind of thing that helps your team. There is bringing a physical presence and there is just stupid stuff. Tom Wilson makes bad decisions.

Love his physicality. But he can be soooo dumb and dirty. Shame.
Andrew Amerk Posted May 4, 2021 Report Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) Tom Wilson was doing things that hockey still allows, and was trying to get his team fired up. Ill take one or two of them on the Sabres for next season, please. Edited May 4, 2021 by Andrew Amerk 1

Ill take one or two of them on the Sabres for next season, please. I'm not willing to cross the moral line of "punching a man's face into the ice" so my hockey team can be a little better and maybe get a very temporary boost. I also hope my team doesn't need anyone to punch a man's face into the ice in order to get fired up. 1

I’ll take the guy punching a mans face over getting Ryan Miller trucked over and nobody doing anything about it. As much as the rules have changed, this is still hockey. Not tennis. You also can’t trust the refs when it’s a Bruins vs Sabres game. Edited May 4, 2021 by Andrew Amerk 2

You can respond to the Miller incident without doing the things Tom Wilson does. This is like someone robbing your house and wanting them to legalize bazookas instead of just buying a security system.

Hoss Posted May 4, 2021 Report Posted May 4, 2021 Tom Wilson should be banned for the remainder of this season and should need to go through some training and meetings before he plays a game next season. 1
dudacek Posted May 4, 2021 Report Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) Schoolyard BS that too many hockey people think is more than OK, but even somehow required. Edited May 4, 2021 by dudacek

I don't think anybody thinks what Tom Wilson did there was required. but it happens. See if there is supplementary discipline (which there should be). he's a repeat offender . Was already suspended this year for a head hit. He should lose playoff games this year. If not, it's inadequate.
Norcal Posted May 4, 2021 Report Posted May 4, 2021 What a start to a career. Welcome to the NHL Cole Caufield.
Norcal Posted May 4, 2021 Report Posted May 4, 2021 6 hours ago, Norcal said: The Rangers did not appreciate that. He could have killed Panarin if his head hit the ice there. Wilson was clearly out of control and needs a year long suspension. His head did hit the ice and now Panarin is done for the year so Wilson should be too.

Wilson was clearly out of control and needs a year long suspension. He also could have messed up Panarin's legs. Just so much dirtiness. He shouldn't play until game 41 next season.
LGR4GM Posted May 4, 2021 Report Posted May 4, 2021 5 hours ago, Hoss said: Yea, ***** Tom Wilson. I'd suspend him the rest of season. Then I'd suspend him for every Rangers game next season as well.
Weave Posted May 4, 2021 Report Posted May 4, 2021 That hair pull takedown and head slam is pretty damning. IMO every bit as dangerous as McSorely baseball bat swing to the back of Odelin’s head. 1
