The NHL's Department of Player Safety has determined Tom Wilson's suspension fate following a high-sticking incident involving Noah Gregor of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The Department of Player Safety announced that Wilson will need to attend an in-person hearing, indicating a suspension of five games or more is likely.
DoPS summons Tom Wilson for an in-person hearing after violent high stick on Noah Gregor during a game.
"Washington's Tom Wilson has been offered an in-person hearing for high-sticking Toronto's Noah Gregor. Date and time TBD."
Elliotte Friedman gave us more details:
"Opens the possibility Wilson could be suspended longer than 5 games"
By giving him a longer suspension, the NHL surely hopes that he'll be more careful on the ice and won't injure players anymore.
