Tom Wilson is a scumbag as Caps down Rangers
Tom Wilson is a scumbag. After punching a defenseless Pavel Buchnevich in the head while on the ice, he body slammed Artemi Panarin, who did not return. That was enough for the Caps to tie it late in the second, then take the lead early in the third. The Rangers were without their best player, and it showed.
That said, the Caps did dominate the game. Most of this game was in the Rangers’ zone. The Rangers were sub-40% CF and sub-30% xGF for most of the game. The fact that the Rangers were even in the game for a while was a borderline miracle. This was not a game the Rangers deserved to win.
Caps 1, Rangers 0 – Bad neutral zone play
