True enough. Too early to say for sure, but certainly looks like the Pacific might have only three playoff teams.

If I had to pick the top three teams in division now, it's San Jose, Vegas and Calgary and I'd have a hard time making a case for anyone else. If Anaheim didn't have Gibson they'd already be done probably. (I could probably make a stronger case for Edmonton than Anaheim at this point.)

This should be 41 minimum and Quintal should quit if it’s not supported.

I can’t even see a good argument for not either looking to end his career or targeting a different Cap. He’s proven he can’t safely be on the ice.

(Morally, of course I see why it wouldn’t be good to take out Kuznetsov, that’s an opponent versus team debate. I honestly think you can argue greater good if literally any player in the league chooses to run Wilson.)

Hopefully Wilson appeals so he can be on the ice with Ryan Reeves on Tuesday.

Jesus. Hopefully Rams Fanny is right and Ryan Reaves just kills him next week. Problem solved.

If it wasn't Wilson you would not have had a foul (maybe interference). Other angles show it as way less than that angle. Avoidable yeah probably. Does Wilson deserve the refs attention, sure. But that angle makes it look worse than it was. Announcers from both sides and coaches from both sides knew it was a bit much to give him a 5 minute major and game misconduct last night.....oh and he did put another in the net last night.

That's bullshit. You are just defending him because he plays for your team. He had plenty of time to avoid the blindside head shot, and he chose not to do so. He deserves a long suspension.

He did not hit him in the head. Even Hynes said as much in the post game presser. I respect others opinion but I am going with the ex-NHLers on this one.
Reardon wrote:"[Wilson] isn't even intending to make a hit. It's incidental contact, and he is following his defenseman down the wall, the player backs into him, he tries to get out of the way of the player, makes himself as small as possible, and there's incidental contact,"
May wrote:It shouldn't have even been a minor penalty," May said. "This is incidental contact. It's a player skating backwards, and Tom Wilson trying to play a defensive role. He's not even trying to hit him. The referee looks out of the corner of his eye and sees No. 43. A two-minute penalty, let alone a five-minute penalty, I think it's disgusting. The Capitals should be upset as an organization."
Hell even Crosby is not jumping on this one.
Sid wrote: “I saw the hit quickly last night,” Penguins captain Sidney Crosby said. “I didn’t see that he hit him in the head or anything. There’s not much to say. They take a close look at it. It is what it is.”

Even if he missed his head it was pretty obvious that he was going for it. And the hit was way late to start.

Flames have scored 5 goals in a period 4 times. The rest of the Nhl - 3 times.

Flames hanging on to an 8-6 lead with 12 minutes left.

Also kind of beautiful that Reaves’ hit was almost exactly what Caps fans tried to pretend Wilson’s against NJ was.

Yeah that was shoulder to shoulder and Wilson was not that far from playing the puck. Only difference is Reaves got big for the hit compared to Wilson a few nights ago. Reeves was going for him all night. He popped him earlier in the game pretty good too. Although the hit of the night was Ovie on Nosek.

If Wilson doesn't like getting everyone's best shot he shouldn't be hitting people in the head every few games. Problem solved. I imagine even Reaves would be happy to hold up on hitting straight through the guy if he wasn't such a dirty POS.

No additional discipline for Reaves. Shouldn't have even got a match penalty probably, but whatevs.

I mean ... it absolutely should be a game and a suspension because there's no intent but to injure, but I'm fine with this. And if someone else does it to Wilson next week, I'm fine with it again.

NHL is the one setting the precedent for this garbage though by not suspending Wilson for the hit on Seney. Once you can justify bullshit hits like that on specious terms like "well, it was just shoulder to shoulder, so..." then it's up to the players to police the game, which is fucking stupid, but here we are.
