Former official Paul Stewart sounds off on the NHL for ONLY fining Capitals Tom Wilson after injuring Rangers star, Artemi Panarin

Paul Stewart was one of the NHL’s best referees. The former undrafted player officiated over 1000 games in the regular season and 49 playoff games. He was also a ref during two of the most high profile international tournaments in the history hockey, the Canada Cup (1987 and 1991). He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2018.

These days, Paul is one of the more opinionated voices and critics in the game. He blogs from time to time at HockeyBuzz.com and his own website YaWannaGo.com. Today on social media he unleashed his thoughts on the NHL’s decision to fine Tom Wilson the max $5000 allowed per the CBA.
