In the realm of hockey controversies, Washington Capitals forward Tom Wilson is a recurring character.
Known for his physical play and frequent clashes with the NHL Department of Player Safety, Wilson's latest skirmish involved a high stick to Toronto Maple Leafs' Noah Gregor, resulting in a six-game suspension.
Surprisingly, the Capitals thrived without him, securing victories in his absence and cementing their playoff berth.
While Wilson could have contested the ban, he opts for a different approach, choosing to serve his full sentence.
