Columbus Blue Jackets Goalie Attacks Tom Wilson And Gets Absolutely Rocked
Washington Capitals forward Tom Wilson has made a name for himself with his knack for getting under opponents' skin.
The 6'4", 220 lb winger is a force on the ice, unafraid to mix it up with anyone, be it an enforcer like Ryan Reaves or even a goaltender like Elvis Merzlikins.
Check out Columbus Blue Jackets netminder Merzlikins taking a solid right hand from Wilson after attempting to confront him following a crease altercation.
Watch the entire scene here:
In the footage, you can see Merzlikins throwing the first punch at a downed Wilson. However, once Wilson regains his footing, things take a quick turn for the goaltender. Kudos to the officials for stepping in before Wilson could unleash more damage on Merzlikins.
