Oh, and the cheap hit was actually cheap HITS, in back to back seasons against the B’s. First time on Tommy Wingels, and second on either Debrusk or Krejci, can’t remember, it was definitely 2nd liner. Not surprisingly, B’s ended up coming back in the series and winning in Seven. Kadri is a fool and a dirty player, but Wilson is MUCH worse. Notice Wilson never tangles with other big guys, only smaller players. When he fights guys approaching his size he gets his A$$ handed to him (My favorite is when he was treated like a rag doll by Ryan Reeves)
It was DeBrusk. History is there, should be a suspension.

Wilson is an ass clown of the highest order. Only player out there that’s worse for the game right now is Brad Marchand. Cheap, dirty, arrogant, cowardly, and just an all around asshole. And gross on top of that.

He epitomizes everything that is wrong with the game today. Hard to believe he plays with someone who represents some of the best qualities in the game, Patrice Bergeron.

Spot on. If that fucker licked me, I’d join Happy Gilmore as one of two players to take a skate off and use it as a weapon.

Marchand worse than Wilson? ?? yeah right. I can name a half dozen guys worse than Marshy....Corey Perry, Matthew Tkachuk, Hell, Wilson’s teammate Ovechkin is a cheap shot POS, routinely dishes out crotch shots, hits guys when they’re down on the ice, etc. There’s Brendan Lemieux who’s just a reboot of his POS pops Claude. Kadri, he’s a reckless headhunter that’ll go down as one of the dirtiest in history.

Marchand spears people in the nuts regularly. Head punches to players on the ice, cheap shots then skating away, intent to injure, leg whips, slew foots, ive seen it all out of him.

He’s not big enough (or brave enough) to head hunt like those you’ve mentioned, but as far as sportsmanship, he is the worst the league has to offer.

I’d rather get licked on the face than have a headhunter end my career... just ask Marc Savard.
Or donald brashear. But, as evidenced above, Little Brad has had plenty of shots that could have ended careers. He just doesn’t have the balls, or body to do it flagrantly, so he does it cheaply and does his best to make sure the refs aren’t looking.

Most of the time when he gets challenged to a fight as a result he just wraps up and turtles to the ice so the refs come in. That fight with niskanen is actually one of the few in which he kept his footing for more than a few seconds. He is the most cowardly player I’ve ever watched.

Figures a Pens fan would mention slewfooting, and completely ignore the scumiest slewfooter in NHL history... Matt Cooke?

You’ll get no argument or defense from me about Matt Cooke, he was a hell of a punk himself.

And, as a pens fan, don’t you think I would find any excuse to agree with you regarding Wilson being worse? I am oathbound to hate everything Capitals. That said he is also certainly one of the worst, and your points on Ovechkin are both correct and highly underdiscussed in the media. That and his shockingly selfish play and abhorrent lack of real leadership.

When did I defend Marchand? I simply stated he isn’t WORSE than Wilson, and his infractions don’t rise to the level of Kadri, Perry, Tkachuk, Lemieux...
Only because they aren’t as visually shocking. They are equally dangerous and far more cowardly.

Which is clearly inaccurate! Ergo, defense. Anyone who posits that he isn’t the worst human being to ever have played the game is clearly misguided. I kid, of course, but I’d love to hear your take on him if he wasn’t on your team.
