In this episode, we dive into the recent controversy surrounding Tom Wilson's hit on Philip Heidel and the NHL's decision not to penalize the Washington Capitals' power forward. We explore the "humanitarian" approach to Wilson's physical play and its impact on the team's performance. The discussion then shifts to Justin Sordif's potential move to center, analyzing the coach's "natural centerman" comment and its implications for the Capitals' lineup.

As Alex Ovechkin approaches his 900th NHL goal, we examine the superstar's slow start and predict when he'll reach this historic milestone. Will Ovechkin's goal-scoring prowess reignite the Capitals' season? Tune in for expert insights on Wilson's controversial hit, Sortif's positional shift, and Ovechkin's pursuit of history in the NHL.
