Orpik knocked maatta out and Wilson smashed shearys kneeWas 2016 the lone year where Caps did not injure one or multiple Penguins players? Or have I forgotten something?

The problem is bigger than Wilson. From the media to coaches to the league itself. **** needs to be overhauled.
I didn't realize how big of a dirtbag coach Trotz is until he started coaching the Caps.
But we lost and they laughed. They showed one camera angle and the entire Cap bench was laughing at ZAR, including that living coward sissy boy Orpik.
If Rig blow up Backstrom or Ovie and we lose, I still think we win, bigtime.
Instead, we sucked it up, were the bigger person and lost on another questionable hit by Wilson.
I would be smiling all day if Rig had responded last night, but that's me and I get that not everyone shares the same mentality. I just don't like being talked down to that my mentality is somehow a problem. On 9/11, the girls in my office went to lunch with me. I didn't think much of it at the time until one of them told me months later that I made them feel safe that day.
Orpik got suspended for concussing Maatta.
Only Sid and Geno get the “dirty superstar” monikers.I remember in last year's playoffs (or was it two years ago) Ovechkin gone knee-on-knee on one of the Flyers, Gostisbehere if I'm not mistaken, in the first round.
Him and Wilson are predators with high hits and knee-on-knee hits. It can't be accidentical when they done it many times.
Ovi doesn't get much s** talked about him for his dirty play, but his constant charges and high hits+wooden chops(really hard slashes) lead to many injured players over the years. I'd absolutely put "dirty player" label on him.
Only Sid and Geno get the “dirty superstar” monikers.
Early in Ovechkin’s career, nearly every one of his hits were charges and nobody ever called him on it, they just marveled at how big and strong he was.
It has worked out great for the Caps getting Wilson so that he can take all those runs at players while Ovie can protect his aging body and focus on scoring.
Why the hell are you talking about being a knight in shining armor on 9/11 on a Pens message board in 2018?
Why are you even here?
There are a slew of stars that have healthy reputations of “dirty” play but Sid and Geno get the focus.Which is frustrating...when the only guy that really deserves that label, not only doesn't get it, but gets away with the dirty stuff time and time again.
Are you restricting it to the playoffs only?OK. Updated list.
Have I missed something still? (I guess I missed Ovechkin chasing Malkin around back in 2009)
In 2009 ovechkin kneed Gonchar who got a knee injury. Ovechkin also took a slapshot aimed at Rob Scuderi late in a game when score was decided.
2016. Orpik concussed Maatta and got suspended. Wilson tried to end Shearys career by kneeing him.
In 2017 Crosby got a concussion from Ovechking slashing him in the neck/head and then Niskanen followed it up with a crosschecking "I did not mean to crosscheck him that high". Sheary was also concussed.
In 2018 Niskanen kneeing Guentzel, and Wilson with headshots on Dumo and ZAR, and this is only after 3 games.

Who will be next`?

Why do we never have a guy capable of laying some abuse on other teams stars? I just cannot figure it out. We haven't had a guy like that since Bobby Farnham or Max Talbot, and don't tell me anyone of that ilk isn't infinitely better than Tom Kuhnackl, Carter Rowney, or Dominick Simon.
Teams have absolute free reign over the entire ice, never once having to worry about being taken out.
Why won’t the most successful team since the NHL lockout in 05-06 mimic other teams that have literally no post season success!!!!!!!!
We won the cup without Letang last year. Why'd we keep him?
We were pretty successful too when we had those types of guys. We were usually derailed in the playoffs by Fleury not being able to stop a medicine ball

Anyone of our players could deliver a head shot. They don’t because it’s supposed to be against the rules and they aren’t c***’s
I'm going to assume the blanked out word is 'cats'. It's cats, right?
Farnham never played a playoff game.
The game has changed since Talbot in 09. And there was a reason we let him walk.
The Letang argument is the most asinine thing I have ever heard from the collective mind of Penguins fans.
