Tom Wilson caught taunting Josh Anderson after he takes a dumb penalty
Tom Wilson had himself a heck of a game tonight in Montreal. He didn't score any points but he was all over the stats sheet. Wilson logged 14-minutes of ice time, had 3 shots, 1 block and 5 hits. Wilson was all over the ice with his own brand of physicality.
In the second period Wilson landed a big hit on Habs forward Jake Evans. Evans quickly turned and two handed Wilson, which or course drew Wilson's attention. When Wilson turned to address Evans he was greeted with a face wash from Josh Anderson.
With the score 4-2 at the time, in favour of the Capitals, it didn't make sense for Wilson to respond. Anderson was awarded a 2-minute penalty for hooking on the play. That's when Wilson turned things up and increased his trolling ability as he openly taunted Anderson, who was in the penalty box.
The chirping didn't stop there as Wilson continued to give it to Anderson the rest of the game between the benches.
The Capitals went on to win 8-4, this lowered the Capitals magic number to clinch a playoff spot to 2-points.
