What is low? Carcillo? Wilson? So many low involved with this thread, it’s fantastic.

Any thread involving Carcillo and Wilson is epic.

Carcillo seriously needs to disappear. I’m so sick of his opinion.

Why do you fail to understand that he sees how he played and that it left him broken and suffering permanent brain damage and that he wants to prevent that from ever happening to another player ever again?

I’m not gonna celebrate Wilson being concussed but I certainly don’t feel bad for him

Imagine being able to look at things objectively no matter what the names are.

I don't care who it is. Signing a picture of a player you injured is sleazy.
Wilson injured himself by admiring his pass and having a loose helmet strap.

That could be a reach but we will never know. At least it's the right message.

Now this picture, I'd not mind getting one. Rather funny. Especially all that Free Willy crap.

Not a good look. I can see if a fan shoved a picture in your face and you give your Herbie Hancock, but I don't think agreeing to sign a bunch of that particular photo with that particular inscription is respectable. Don't have a problem with the hit, don't have a problem with his post-game comments, but this is a bit much.

Hopefully Reaves is giving the money to charity as that would probably drive sales way up.

/thinks it funnier than hell

This just shows how disliked Wilson is. I've seen Reaves show actual remorse for other players he's hurt.

I'm sure Reaves will give Wilson a few minutes of his time if he wants to talk about it next game.

I love it. Wilson has no respect for anyone and deserves to be humiliated.

Can we just have Reaves, Wilson and Marchand just injuring each other out of the league?

I don't even hate Wilson, but he's like a modern day Matt Cooke with his repeated history. And a player like that is extremely hard to feel any sort of sympathy for...he had it coming.

I don’t trust him; I highly doubt he woke up one day saying I wanna help others! He’s simply trying to stay relevant.

Some Caps fans are more offended by a signed photo than their own guy running around hurting people.

I don't care about the photo. Let him scrape blood from the ice and sell that, too.

The problem is the hypocrisy coming from most here, and the inconsistency from the DOPS. Reaves set out to injure a player, bragged about it, and marketed it. The league wouldn't even have a hearing. If Wilson had done any of those things he would be suspended for 20+ games and everyone here would declare him worse than Hitler.

I know most here are not interested in the nuances of Tom Wilson's game, or why some hits are bad and others aren't. Just be honest about priorities.

Because Reaves doesn’t average a really bad hit every 12 games.
