It's a tough one. Obviously it's going to be a league review and something that's out of our hands, but he's coming back into the defensive zone and into position and player cuts back into him.

So it's a tough one and again, I know the league will be looking into it well the preseason is

finally over the next time we all get together they'll be raising a banner to the roof at capital

one arena the big question will tom wilson be there to see it certainly doesn't seem so at least

not on the ice as we welcome you to a pop-up podcast on this Sunday afternoon.

I'm Rob Carlin with J.J. Regan.

There's only so many times Tom Wilson could look at his coaching staff and his teammates and

into the cameras and say, what else do they want me to do?

At some point, it's not the refs problem.

It's not the other players' problem.

It's a Tom Wilson problem.

And everyone we've talked to, JJ, seems to agree. A suspension's coming. It's deserved. And there's a couple of people. I put the line at five and a half. There's a couple of people who went pretty strong that it's going to be more. I'm in the camp that it's going to be more. I don't see any possible way that he's going to avoid suspension here.

It's going to be lengthy.

He's a repeat offender.

I mean, in the last season, from preseason to postseason, he got suspended three times.

I mean, the big story around Tom Wilson from the playoffs was the hit the Zach Asson

and Reese, and we can't even get out of the preseason

without him getting into hot water again.

I don't see any way how he avoids suspension.

And as you said, I mean, at this point, you lose the benefit of the doubt.

You can't keep looking and say, what, what me?

Are you talking about me?
