That's an important distinction. Outcomes matter.The main board strikes again with trying to downplay the Voynov matter vs the Watson matter with this "Voynov beat his wife up good; Watson just pushed his girlfriend" line. That push could have led to a cracked skull or that person being pushed getting hit by a car. Let's see if the NHL suspends Watson indefinitely like they did with Voynov.
Big deal. He will be punished or not by the court system. Why should get any more than that?
So it's a gender issue? None of you have crazy GF's or wives? I hope your worst day is clean, shiny and better than Watson's.
It's not a gender issue. DV goes both ways. You're simply downplaying it which is incredibly dumb. You need to check yourself if you're sitting there trying to justify hitting a SO.
The Tennessean sensationalized a non-story about a sports star, who ironically was involved in an Anti-DV campaign.
I'm not justifying anything. Read my post again, before you turn into an internet tough guy.
A man, given the strength differential, should never, ever be hitting a woman. Few women would be able to protect themselves.So it's a gender issue? None of you have crazy GF's or wives? I hope your worst day is clean, shiny and better than Watson's.
Calling an arrest a non story is justifying it. "Big deal". Saying that he doesn't deserve to be punished by the league for it is justifying it. Posting "None of you have crazy GFs or ex wives?" when in a conversation about DV is asinine.
I wonder if we could acquire Andre Burakovsky. He’s got one year left at a 3m cap hit. He played pretty limited minutes as Vrana played more in the playoffs, especially in the final.Caps re-up John Carlson... 8x8

They might feel they can replace him with a cheaper UFA or an ELC and relieve some cap pressure.
He was 12th among Caps forwards in TOI/GP in the playoffs at 10:42. Which was exactly the time per game he enjoyed in the finals. With a 3m hit next season, I bet he’s very available.He's young and his p/60 is still good. Scored a few big goals in the playoffs. Really no reason for them to not just let his final year play out. They'll own his rights at the end.
