tough spot for the DPoS. One the one hand, I feel they love to turn a blind eye to Tom Wilson, but on the other hand, anything against the Leafs is considered murder.
Would have liked a couple of games more, but I hate players like Tom Wilson, so I don't claim objectivity here.

Should have been a minimum 10 games, but DOPS punishing Wilson at all is a freaking miracle so I guess 6 will have to do

6 is good. Repeat offender tax.
I'd love to understand George Parros criteria for suspension. It's all over that map.

What did the wood chipper ever do to you?

Good suspension but how is this 6 and rempe's hit only 4? Both deserve at least 6. 10 would make sense as well.

Ban him for life! No need for a repeat offender in the league.

He has been suspended five times previously, including once for 20 games (reduced to 14 games after an appeal to an arbitrator) for an illegal check to the head. Before Friday, his last suspension was seven games for boarding in 2021.

#### Tom Wilson. He should have gotten 25 games. I remember when he did the UFC takedown of Lance Bouma without a helmet and just about smashed his Pumpkin.
Guys a tool. Will always be a tool. Extend the suspensions each time until he's gone.

I don't know how he can claim with a straight face that it was an accident.
It's really too bad he is such a dirt bag, because aside from that crap, he's a pretty good player.

This is a guy I would love to ban from the league altogether. Every year there are 2 or 3 "Tom Wilson incidents" that are so far beyond a normal play in hockey. This is a great example.
Makes a clean and hard hit. Cool beans.
Puck moves away from him and Gregor. Okay, nothing to see here.
Whiplashes his stick for no reason behind him and slams it into Gregor's face. What???!!! Why???!!!
What possible reason could he have had to do that? There's no good explanation here. Tom Wilson is just a ####ing psycho with a short fuse. We've seen it time and time again. Kick him out of the ####ing league already. It's ridiculous.
6 games? #### that. Should have been 20. Stupid league doesn't really give a #### about player safety.

I heard Gregor told Wilson that his mom wore army pants.

It’s funny to hear them say “we acknowledge he did not mean to hit him in the face”. BS. He totally meant to. Wilson deserves karma in the biggest way. Garbage player.

6 games given his history seems low to me. Tom Wilson using his stick as a weapon to target his opponents head should justify a much more severe penalty IMO. Give him 15 games and those first few missed Capitals playoff games really punish both player & team.

Didn't you see the pathetic puff piece on TSN where he said he takes more shots doing this job then he did when he played and they all laughed?
Maybe if there was any sort of transparency and explanation as opposed to just trivial spin the wheel justi ce it wouldn't be the case. Dudes a clown, the whole player safety department is a joke and I'll never understand what one guy does is a crime compared to another.

That's not "high sticking". It's assault with a weapon. Didn't McSorely get punted from the league completely for this?

I absolutely want this guy out of the league. POS who doesn't acknowledge or understand he cannot play without consequences.
His appeal reducing a previous suspension of less 6 games should have been tacked on here
Furthermore he should be told not to expect any future appeals. He should face no less than 50 games as a result of repeated dooshbaggery.
Why is this clown - coward in the league. He's one more suspension away from Marty Mcsorely or worse where the next guy has his career ended as a result.
Fire Parros into the sun as well
