As the Washington Capitals and Philadelphia Flyers exchanged goals in the second period, the game slowly escalated. A fight between Aaron Volpatti and Adam Hall did nothing to stop it.

It all came to a head when Tom Wilson charged Brayden Schenn behind the Philly net.

Schenn was shaken after the hit, requiring help to stay up.

Wilson was issued five minutes for fighting, five for charging, and a game misconduct penalty. Mark Streit and Jacob Voracek scored on the ensuing five-minute power play.

Your thoughts? Wilson was definitely charging, but Schenn’s turn into vulnerable position might mitigate supplemental discipline. Still, put me down for 4 games based on the distance of the charge.
