Wilson got fined $5,000 and no suspension. Rangers are irate. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10001982-rangers-rip-nhl-in-statement-after-tom-wilsons-5k-fine-for-roughing

I guess the reasoning is that the player who Wilson injured shouldn't have gotten involved.

But the teams play again tonight. So, do the Rangers try to get revenge and go after a Caps player who can't defend himself?

Lol.
Read on Twitter


Rangers get fined $250,000 for complaining too strenuously that Wilson got fined only $5,000. Not to mention, they lost to the Caps again last night.

The great story of the game was TJ Oshie's first game back after his father's death - scoring 3 goals.

Alex Ovechkin... just sayin...

will likely pass Jagr this year and Gordie Howe next season. Only Gretzky will be ahead of him.

And if he stays healthy for a couple more years after that...

I mean, he ain't slowing down. The guy is tied for the NHL lead this season, and 3rd place is 4 behind.

Imagining the cost of Caps tickets if he approaches The Great One.
