Lubomir Visnovsky's Concussion Means a lot to Everybody

Tom Wilson took the penalty heard around the hockey community during game four as he charged into Lubomir Visnovsky.  The penalty resulted in Wilson's second two minute minor of the game, the first being a kneeing penalty against Josh Bailey.  Both Bailey and Visnovsky went flying.

Fortunately enough for the Islanders Bailey was fine. Unfortunately, Visnovsky was not.

Visnovsky has now been ruled out indefinitely due to a concussion, so the Islanders will have to do some interesting roster management to adjust. The league has already decided to take action by way of inaction declaring that the two minute minor served was enough punishment and fans are noticeably incensed.
