For the second straight game in the series, Washington Capitals forward Tom Wilson delivered a devastating hit to a member of the Pittsburgh Penguins.
After avoiding discipline for his hit on defenseman Brian Dumoulin in Game 2, Wilson leveled rookie Zach Aston-Reese with a head shot and will now have a hearing with the NHL's Department of Player Safety.
The hit left Aston-Reese with a broken jaw and a concussion.
It seems Wilson's luck has run out as he's likely to be suspended for his latest infraction. The question now is how many games does he deserve to sit?
