I'm not calling him scum for the incident. I think it was very likely an accident or an effect of the concussion. I don't fault him for the incident.
He's a ###### for blaming it on the refs and the media. I also don't believe he was honest with the experts.

And yet if you look at other forums and media, there's far more people vilifying Wideman than those defending him. Unless the forum happens to be for fans of the Flames. I'm sure that's just coincidence.

While I thought he was way out of line for the action, it was this comment that made me view him as a AAA sack of ####.
