For a game that is extremely important for the Capitals, wowie this game started slow. Of course, not a ton of value in this game for the Flyers, but I digress. Things began to pick up though after a mid-ice collision between Nicolas Aube-Kubel and Tom Wilson. Now with zero context you are probably thinking one of two things.
- NAK went after Wilson because ... well it’s Tom Wilson.
- NAK was the victim of a Wilson cheapshot
The correct answer? None of the above! It was just one of those weird collisions between two guys not exactly paying attention to their surroundings.
