Department of Player Safety Does Not Suspend Tom Wilson, Fines Him Maximum Allowed By CBA

Last night Tom Wilson again proved why he does not belong in the NHL after he attacked a defenseless Pavel Buchnevich and later drove Artemiy Panarin to the ice by his hair.

The Washington Capitals forward, a player that the Department of Player Safety probably has on speed-dial by now, received a right and proper punishment for trying to concuss two opposing forwards by serving a whopping 14 minutes in penalties (four for roughing and a ten minute misconduct). After serving his well-earned time, a duly chastised Wilson came back in the 3rd period to score an empty net goal.
