Canadiens Star Juraj Slafkovsky Caught on Video Mocking Capitals' Tom Wilson

Tom Wilson's fake-crying gesture toward the Montreal Canadiens was the turning point of Game 3, but not the one for him.

After a second-period fight sparked by Wilson, Josh Anderson, and Arber Xhekaj, fighters from both teams battled near and in the Capitals' bench.

After being separated, Wilson turned to the Canadiens and made a fake-crying gesture, trying to get them going while Bell Centre fans chanted "Ole Ole Ole" cheers.

The Canadiens, who were leading 3-2 then, didn't flinch. Even when Alexander Ovechkin got one back to tie it early in the third period, Wilson's theatrics only seemed to feed Montreal's energy.

Christian Dvorak replied with a goal a few minutes later, and Juraj Slafkovsky and Alex Newhook tacked on two more to seal a 6-3 win.

Adding to Wilson's embarrassment, cameras also caught Slafkovsky mocking Wilson's blubbering motion amidst the chaos, and the clip went viral on social media.

Wilson and Anderson each received 10-minute misconducts and roughing minors, and Xhekaj and Capitals forward Lars Eller also saw time in the box.

It was a dirty night overall for Washington. Top goalie Logan Thompson left late in the third after colliding with teammate Dylan Strome, shortly after Canadiens goalie Sam Montembeault left with an earlier injury.

The Canadiens trail in the series 2-1, but they will look to carry their momentum forward and even the series in Game 4 on Sunday at the Bell Centre.
