Yeah, you aren’t there to kill each other you are there to play a game and rough each other up a little bit. But typically the team is more mad about the penalty rather than someone getting hurt.
It’s more the fact that all the skill players have a valid target on their backs now.. like until Wilson gets fucking cleared out, it’s going to be all focused on your skill players.

@@randylahey8207 he did get suspended. As he should. 20 games is probably a bit light, considering history and force. It isn't a clean hit, he commits both charging, late hit and checking to the head, he has a movement upwards etc. It is not just about "keep your head up" - that only applies if your hit is strictly horizontal, but Wilson's hit isn't, he checks the head. So there is a common misunderstanding that players need to keep their head up to be aware and that isn't really what matters in cases like these. What matters here is that he checks with an upward motion; you can't defend against that regardless if you keep your head up.

This hit in a way saved Sunnys career he was about ready to be sent down but was injured so he couldn't and once he got healthy there was another injury so he had to play and went on a run and not looked back
I once attended a preseason game where a guy drove a small defenseman into the boards. I don't get it either. Why be an asshole if the match outcome doesn't matter.
This was PRESEASON? Dude, Tom Wilson is an established NHL star, there's no reason for a guy not playing for a roster spot to even think about throwing a check that big in an exhibition game. Even if it was shoulder on shoulder it's unnecessary in a tune up game. That guy just doesn't have any self control.
My favorite part of this ghastly hit was when the announcers calmly announced that “This was not what you like to see on the last day of preseason”. Preseason? No wonder his own teammates were looking at him weird.
sneeakysteve well it kinda is he’s job, he was not defending the player he was just asking for an explanation, like how big the penalty is going to be or if he’s going to get suspended.

And then when another player tries to pull him away, Wilson smashes HIS head into the ice. What is happening? Somebody needs to sick Ryan Reaves back on this clown. He must have forgotten.

What the hell he was gonna shoot the puck and Wilson was trying to crush him to get him off the puck it’s not a bad play and sure it was charging but suspension worthy not even in the slightest
@@nuclearclown5374 Watch how wilson lunges directly at his head and only made contact with his head he has a whole body to aim at and only catches his head
@nuclearclown5374 it was late, it was charging, and it was to the head. Absolutely suspension worthy especially considering that lunatics track record. He is unnecessarily rough and is gonna end someones career or kill somebody someday. Give him 40 games for all i care
It’s more, “You hurt my guy, I’m gonna hurt you.” Its part of the game, and that’s why they leave the hurt player. Plus they want to give him space instead of crowding around him. If they do crowd around him, the trainer and medical staff have to go through people to get to the injured player. Also if there’s a crowd and somebody falls on the injured player or steps on him, there’s even more problems
Well you obviously don't play hockey because usually the reason we do that is to (defend the honor of the guy on the ground) is called retaliation they put one of ours on the ground so we do it to them
The rest of the caps on the bench wouldn't even look at, let alone speak to Wilson as he walked by to the dressing room. When your teammates won't even look at you, you f***ed up.
@I did Jordan get one championship and say ehh good enough for me? Any professional athlete tries to win a chip every year and gets upset if they get eliminated from playoffs each time. No one is thinking about 11 months ago when they won last lol, they’re on the ice right there in the moment, getting beat out by a better team and wishing it was them. Beat me in a fight and then fight me a year later and get your teeth knocked out, see if you’re still thinking about when you won while ur in a hospital bed
@@Poezick88 you too. No athlete isn’t pissed each year they lose lol. No great stops at one cup, one chip, one MVP. Any great athlete basketball football, hockey etc. will always try to win back to back, and will be equally as mad they get kicked out whether they got a cup already or not
I truly think a majority of people don’t grasp just how serious head injuries are and just how easy it is to cause one. To your own self, someone else, or how detrimental the consequences can be if not taken care of properly. I have actual memory issues now because I didn’t do the proper things to heal after getting a concussion. It started off as a mild concussion from a car accident, and has now turned into something that I feel like is slowly ruining my life. All because I couldn’t stay my ass in bed for two weeks.
🤔 I've had multiple concussions and went to the hospital. From sports, getting hit by a bicyclist on my skateboard, hitting the back of my head snowboarding, 1 car accident, 2 motorcycle accidents. Wow, I've had a lot! Never once was I told to stay in bed for two weeks. I'm now 40 and an engineer. Perhaps your issues are something else.
Should have been the same penalty minutes as fighting. How can anyone say this is not okay, but it's okay to throw off helmets and punch people in the face and fling them down on the ice where they could easily inflict more damage. Either more punishment for fighting or this shouldn't be much more. Nasty hit, but definitely there have been way worse in the NHL
Imagine being the coach and having to ask the ref for an "explanation" out of formality so you don't look weak. I know you gotta support your guys no matter what. But come on. Sometimes just tell your player to get the hell to the showers and you'll talk to him after the game about his bullsh*t.
@@tykeboy16 Dude came in hot with his elbow aimed for his neck. Wilson deserved a 40+ game suspension. This type of recklessness ends other players’ careers.
@@Cheddar_Wizard are you blind? His elbow was tucked in, didnt raise it all. The only way he could have used his elbow less is he if he had it amputated.
Quag mire Can you define the difference between this hit and a legal one, though? At center ice? How would one knock someone off the puck in the mid zone legally?
Should not have been a 20 gamer. He had possession of the puck, Tom had his eyes on the puck the entire time, stopped skating so it wasn’t a charge, and leaned out of it. Over reaction by everyone.
@@hellomoto63803 his head wasn't down lol he literally was looking forward after he got rid of the puck. Dirty hit to the head of a defenseless player. Watching the Caps raise their banner without Wilson was so damn satisfying. Tired of his bullshit.
It’s also funny how blues fans will act hurt and angry when it’s a player on their team getting pummeled like this, but the dozen plus elbows all the purposeful boarding and the slew foot trip that the blues committed is just hockey though right.
@@grvndolf6692 and it kids like you are the reason I don't feel bad for any Boston player who gets hurt. When savard got hurt, I didnt care. Boston is full of goons and worthless fans who cheer for players who get hurt.
Watch from 1:38 to 1:42. Sundquist cut though the middle of the zone with his head down because he wanted to shoot. Sorry there was NHL players on the ice at the time but Dustin Byfuglien, Bryan Bickell or Kronwall would have done the same thing
Love how theyre like "comes to the aid of a fallen [teammate]." No other sport would ascribe heroism to a player starting a fight, even for this. X3 gotta love hockey.
Here in NYC years ago, we had 3 of the most biased commentators in sports. Ed Westphal(NYI) Peter McNabb(NJD) and the worst John Davidson(NYR). Their teams players could almost kill an opponent, and they downplayed it. But sneeze in the direction of their players and they scream murder.
@@tykeboy16 This was 3 years ago... And while you are right that a blindside hit is not inherently a penalty in hockey. It is almost always a dangerous hit that ends in an injury, usually to the head. And the commentators still thought it was a fine hit, which it wasn't
Love when they watch the replay and wait a good 3-4 seconds once they realize how dirty is was and don't have a way they can actually complain about it...
Why would you title this video with the word “kills”? I get how it can be a figure of speech but sports injuries can actually kill people… especially in hockey.
Yup! Don’t cut to the middle in the slots aka “trolly tracks” with your head completely down, pre season or not probably best to practice good habits lol
That’s just straight up head hunting. He had no intent to take the puck or play the puck. He locked in fully on his head and went for it with his elbow/shoulder, paying no mind to the puck lol. That’s one of the dirtiest hits I’ve seen.
As much as I despise Tom Wilson, I'm having a hard time seeing any "head hunting" here. It was a vicious open ice hit. You gotta keep your head up when you're on the ice. Not only that, you ESPECIALLY have to keep your head up when Wilson is on the ice....you have got to account for him every second he's out there. And there's no elbow there. Now if you want to see an elbow on a hit like that, go look at the video of Matt Cooke's hit on Marc Savard. Even as a Penguins fan, I was constantly disgusted by Cooke's play.
You're right. Now players like Wilson get increased suspensions if they keep doing it. Back then, it was bench clearing brawls with 400 million in revenue. Now it's 4 Billion in revenue and better hockey with goons like Wilson on a short leash.

What the hell he was gonna shoot the puck and Wilson was trying to crush him to get him off the puck it’s not a bad play and sure it was charging but suspension worthy not even in the slightest
@@kg_canuck yeah you are right
@@nuclearclown5374 Watch how wilson lunges directly at his head and only made contact with his head he has a whole body to aim at and only catches his head
@nuclearclown5374 it was late, it was charging, and it was to the head. Absolutely suspension worthy especially considering that lunatics track record. He is unnecessarily rough and is gonna end someones career or kill somebody someday. Give him 40 games for all i care
That awkward walk through is bench in to his dressing room knowing he screwed up.
I love how in hockey nobody cares if someone gets badly hurt. Everyone just be like "Fight me. Even if you didn't do it"
It’s more, “You hurt my guy, I’m gonna hurt you.” Its part of the game, and that’s why they leave the hurt player. Plus they want to give him space instead of crowding around him. If they do crowd around him, the trainer and medical staff have to go through people to get to the injured player. Also if there’s a crowd and somebody falls on the injured player or steps on him, there’s even more problems
Blood for blood
Well you obviously don't play hockey because usually the reason we do that is to (defend the honor of the guy on the ground) is called retaliation they put one of ours on the ground so we do it to them

@@gobluz3 doesnt change the fact he's a stanley cup champion tbh
Wilson looked so surprised. “What I purposely cheap shotted him? What I hit him in the head?”
The rest of the caps on the bench wouldn't even look at, let alone speak to Wilson as he walked by to the dressing room. When your teammates won't even look at you, you f***ed up.
And then the Caps proceeded to lose in the first round while Sundvqist and the Blues go on and win the Cup
@I It'll upset him when the Caps start rebuilding faster than the Blues. Caps on a steep decline.
@@stoddard1953 still….he got his cup. Js
@I did Jordan get one championship and say ehh good enough for me? Any professional athlete tries to win a chip every year and gets upset if they get eliminated from playoffs each time. No one is thinking about 11 months ago when they won last lol, they’re on the ice right there in the moment, getting beat out by a better team and wishing it was them. Beat me in a fight and then fight me a year later and get your teeth knocked out, see if you’re still thinking about when you won while ur in a hospital bed
@@Poezick88 you too. No athlete isn’t pissed each year they lose lol. No great stops at one cup, one chip, one MVP. Any great athlete basketball football, hockey etc. will always try to win back to back, and will be equally as mad they get kicked out whether they got a cup already or not

@@Jay-bz3qd ok my sarcasm detector is off but if that’s not sarcastic you need to get your eyes checked
I truly think a majority of people don’t grasp just how serious head injuries are and just how easy it is to cause one. To your own self, someone else, or how detrimental the consequences can be if not taken care of properly. I have actual memory issues now because I didn’t do the proper things to heal after getting a concussion. It started off as a mild concussion from a car accident, and has now turned into something that I feel like is slowly ruining my life. All because I couldn’t stay my ass in bed for two weeks.
🤔
I've had multiple concussions and went to the hospital. From sports, getting hit by a bicyclist on my skateboard, hitting the back of my head snowboarding, 1 car accident, 2 motorcycle accidents.
Wow, I've had a lot!
Never once was I told to stay in bed for two weeks.
I'm now 40 and an engineer.
Perhaps your issues are something else.
@@dangerous8333 perhaps you’re such a douchebag because of the brain trauma. Oh you’re an engineer? A calculator can replace you. Get a grip buddy. 😂
Should have been the same penalty minutes as fighting. How can anyone say this is not okay, but it's okay to throw off helmets and punch people in the face and fling them down on the ice where they could easily inflict more damage. Either more punishment for fighting or this shouldn't be much more. Nasty hit, but definitely there have been way worse in the NHL
@@dangerous8333or maybe your concussions were just mild.
@@dangerous8333you must have an empty head
Imagine being the coach and having to ask the ref for an "explanation" out of formality so you don't look weak. I know you gotta support your guys no matter what. But come on. Sometimes just tell your player to get the hell to the showers and you'll talk to him after the game about his bullsh*t.
There was nothing wrong with this hit. All shoulder, didnt raise his elbow, didnt leave his feet. Just got caught with his head down.
@@tykeboy16 main point of contact to the head.. illegal hit.
@@tykeboy16 nope
@@tykeboy16 Dude came in hot with his elbow aimed for his neck. Wilson deserved a 40+ game suspension. This type of recklessness ends other players’ careers.
@@Cheddar_Wizard are you blind? His elbow was tucked in, didnt raise it all. The only way he could have used his elbow less is he if he had it amputated.
At least he wasn't laughing this time.
HermaphroGynandro he can laugh at home all he wants
@@koozy613 was it worth of 20 games and allmost 1 million dollars ?
he was laughing at the fan reactions, not the injury
Both hits were completely legal, the Aston one was clean too. If he wasn't hunched over and had his head up then he would've been fine.
Quag mire Can you define the difference between this hit and a legal one, though? At center ice? How would one knock someone off the puck in the mid zone legally?
His own teammates are like dude wtf? It’s preseason 😂
Should not have been a 20 gamer. He had possession of the puck, Tom had his eyes on the puck the entire time, stopped skating so it wasn’t a charge, and leaned out of it. Over reaction by everyone.
The entire Caps bench at the end was the comical relief to this video
Asking for an explanation..."Ahhh, he tried to remove his head from his body."
Even the crowd was sad for that other player 😪
DC is not Philly or Long Island. Caps fans are alright.
This is gonna scare people, Wilson didn’t kill someone and sunqvist is doing good right now
And now he’s at it again. Wish he could be kicked out of the league
Sigh......WHOS HERE WHEN HE DID IT AGAIN
Total blindside hit. Not clean in any era. Just cheap
@@hellomoto63803 his head wasn't down lol he literally was looking forward after he got rid of the puck. Dirty hit to the head of a defenseless player. Watching the Caps raise their banner without Wilson was so damn satisfying. Tired of his bullshit.
@@hellomoto63803 lol
Only The Truth how’re you liking tommy hitting the links?
I love that if a Boston player did that everyone would hate the double
@@hellomoto63803 he is golfing now. I wouldn't be surprised to see him checking poor defensless old people on the golf course.
Wilson is a dirty player and has been for years. Honestly it's a miracle he's still allowed to play
Both Wilson and Sundqvist now have a stanley cup victory lol
And it’s funny how the blues won the cup by playing very dirty hockey that entire playoff run
It’s also funny how blues fans will act hurt and angry when it’s a player on their team getting pummeled like this, but the dozen plus elbows all the purposeful boarding and the slew foot trip that the blues committed is just hockey though right.

Wilson is the next Chris Simon. Boy, that guy was dangerous. Even got a 30 game suspension.
I remember the Simon and Tinordi line on the Capitals back in the day. GOOOOONERY!
This game has gotten so soft. Just let the guy skate off to the locker room? No one went after him to rip his head off? Amazing!
agreed
20 games seems pretty light for killing someone
He hasn’t been suspended since. It’s good that he turned his career around after this
He's a repeat offender and must behave until his 18 month probation is over. We'll soon see the real Wilson again, the head hunter.

@@grvndolf6692 and it kids like you are the reason I don't feel bad for any Boston player who gets hurt. When savard got hurt, I didnt care. Boston is full of goons and worthless fans who cheer for players who get hurt.
Mac Mac is it bad that after every hit I say BOP in my head?
Watch from 1:38 to 1:42. Sundquist cut though the middle of the zone with his head down because he wanted to shoot. Sorry there was NHL players on the ice at the time but Dustin Byfuglien, Bryan Bickell or Kronwall would have done the same thing
When I looked at the title I thought he was actually dead
Same
I like how he shrugs his shoulders and his teammates just avoid eye contact with him.
Meh. Shrugged shoulders is exactly how I feel. Unlucky hit. They skate at like 15-20 mph.
Not that hard to skate in another direction, tard.
@@ryansheets3951 I can tell you're a capitals fan. Lol
Love how theyre like "comes to the aid of a fallen [teammate]." No other sport would ascribe heroism to a player starting a fight, even for this. X3 gotta love hockey.

The same hit that killed Marc Savard’s career
I love that the hometown commentators couldn’t even call it a headshot/blindside hit
"maybe it was from his visor hitting him in the cheek"....yea that must have been it
Here in NYC years ago, we had 3 of the most biased commentators in sports. Ed Westphal(NYI) Peter McNabb(NJD) and the worst John Davidson(NYR). Their teams players could almost kill an opponent, and they downplayed it. But sneeze in the direction of their players and they scream murder.
@@albertstashin4371 Worst Commentator are the Islanders Dousch Bag they call "THE DOC"
Blindside doesnt mean anything in hockey. Directly from behind is a penalty, not blindside.
@@tykeboy16 This was 3 years ago... And while you are right that a blindside hit is not inherently a penalty in hockey. It is almost always a dangerous hit that ends in an injury, usually to the head. And the commentators still thought it was a fine hit, which it wasn't
His team wont even make eye contact with him...
Even his own team look at him like "wtf bro..."
Love when they watch the replay and wait a good 3-4 seconds once they realize how dirty is was and don't have a way they can actually complain about it...
When I first read "kills" I thought he outplayed him. Then I read "20 game suspension" and got a bit worried...
Why would you title this video with the word “kills”? I get how it can be a figure of speech but sports injuries can actually kill people… especially in hockey.
And the coach wanted an explanation lmfao what the hell is even that
Flashbacks to Stevens and Paul Kariya
In the 80s, this was a clean, proper check
Yup! Don’t cut to the middle in the slots aka “trolly tracks” with your head completely down, pre season or not probably best to practice good habits lol
I love that Vrana stares at him like he is a crazy person
haha he just looks dumfounded through the entire video
Reaves cleaning Wilsons jaw is the best highlight in recent hockey until someone gives Wilson a career ending injury.
*life ending Fixed it for you.
To clear any confusion the title might cause, Sundqvist is alive and well and is still playing ti this day.
That’s just straight up head hunting. He had no intent to take the puck or play the puck. He locked in fully on his head and went for it with his elbow/shoulder, paying no mind to the puck lol. That’s one of the dirtiest hits I’ve seen.
Bro he had the puck it was a clean hit 🤡💀
U must be new to hockey then.
No elbow at all. All shoulder. If your head is getting hit by someone's shoulder that didnt leave their feet, then you're playing right.
As much as I despise Tom Wilson, I'm having a hard time seeing any "head hunting" here. It was a vicious open ice hit. You gotta keep your head up when you're on the ice. Not only that, you ESPECIALLY have to keep your head up when Wilson is on the ice....you have got to account for him every second he's out there. And there's no elbow there.
Now if you want to see an elbow on a hit like that, go look at the video of Matt Cooke's hit on Marc Savard. Even as a Penguins fan, I was constantly disgusted by Cooke's play.
@@Ttttg-c3f No, he's just not afflicted with Wilson Derangement Syndrome.

"I went to the fights and a hockey game broke out." - a very old joke
And a very good joke.
Notice how the caps announcing team never mentions that it was a head hit or a blindside hit on an unsuspecting player
That’s because they think darling Wilson can do nothing wrong.
It’s their job they probably realized that
@@tingle8554 any good announcer can at least admit when a player from their team does wrong
@@zachlesk5685 I mean most of the time they can recognize a penalty to their own team unlike jack no slew foot edwards
Looked like a clean hard hit on the backcheck to me. Not Wilson's fault modern NHL players are softer than playdoe.
Back when fighting was allowed; hits like this were few and far between.
You're right. Now players like Wilson get increased suspensions if they keep doing it. Back then, it was bench clearing brawls with 400 million in revenue. Now it's 4 Billion in revenue and better hockey with goons like Wilson on a short leash.
@@davidwand8046 and the sport is now as boring as watching paint dry. Hockey needs fighting.

@@davidwand8046 no the game needs more fighting and hitting. The new sissy NHL blows. We need more Tocchets, Kordics and Proberts. Not pussies like Crosby and Malkin.
@@georgemichaelbluth7755 By the way I met Tocchet after the game during the Canada Cup 1987 in Hamilton. Extremely cool guy, and shorter than me. And yes, humble and tough at the same time.

@@TheYaegerjeusmc So you want players flying around with their heads down? If so, we should just ban hitting altogether in the name of safety. To some degree players have to know how to protect themselves.

A H how about don’t aim for the head
@@cocklet695 The guys head is down staring at the puck. How does he hit him at all? Pretty sure day 1 of hockey school they tell you don't skate into the middle of the ice with the puck and your head down.

Legend has it he's still alive, and wasnt killed at all...
I'm looking forward to next year, when they go after Wilson's trick left knee, all season long. Sweep The Leg! He's a punk, and has it coming.
If he died how is he still in the playoffs???
He didn't die it's just a clickbait title
Zymbol thank you, this make things clearer
I must have missed the part where Tom Wilson kills that guy
I'm a Caps fan, and I want to defend this and say we are singled out etc, etc. But this was nasty and not necessary. I like Wilson but this was inexcusable.
I'm a caps fan too but honestly Wilson is a menace
i thought that he had actually killed him from the title lmao.
Wait.. didnt h..
Well that was officially clickbait…
Yeah i wanted to see someone die tf
We can be honest here, wilson is the scariest guy in the league.
Most people would rather see someone end Wilson's season than see him suspended.
Absolutely! NHL or any other league doesn't need this type of ASSHOLE!
Even his own team is like “wtf man”
The person that got suspended should be suspended for the same time the other guy was injured for. And if it was to short the nhl decides after that
Filipthegod thats some dumb reasoning ngl
@@mackydirty1856 unless you're going to explain why it is dumb reasoning, your comment is as useless as a movie critic that writes " This movie is bad 1/10".
For one its dumb. The suspension should of started at the regular season so he missed games that mattered in the reg.
