Jacob Trouba left game after taking a hit from Tom Wilson

Rangers head coach Peter Laviolette said Jacob Trouba is being evaluated. Tom Wilson hit Jacob Trouba with his shoulder at the start of the second period. It appeared the shoulder made contact with Trouba's head. #nhl #nhldiscussion #hockey

Wait … Wilson hurt someone and didn’t do anything wrong. He is evolving

[@Ratstick58]

Troubs hustling got the best of him. That was 110 percent but not the effect you want.

[@ronaldkonkoma4356]

Reaching gets a lot of players hurt. In this case he was not reaching out of laziness but it still makes you a little bit vulnerable.

[@RoughRaiders13]

Yeah I'm a die hard Rangers fan and as much as it kills me to say, Wilson did nothing wrong there. His focus was 100% on trying to score a goal. Trouba totally did run his head into Wilson shoulder. Hopefully it's just a small neck strain and won't keep him out for more than this game.

[@The_Hutchyboy]

You nailed it. Wilson is a dick, but he didn’t do anything wrong, he was driving to the net with the puck, period.

[@ronaldkonkoma4356]

Trouba was trying to keep him from falling into another goalie this week. Wilson was leaning pretty hard so Trouba just had to balance him out.

[@JaggedDagger]

Ya, sure looks like a shoulder to me 0:32

[@ronaldkonkoma4356]

Imagine this. 2 people who are often being accused of being dirty players at the heart of an argument over an injury.

[@adamwade8801]

the title is so misleading 😂

[@ronniek7748]

Can’t stand either of those two.

[@Kallogee]

That aint no hit

[@holyspider9206]

Channel is pure garbage. 2 weeks ago you tried claiming Wilson aggregated the fight with Elvis, now you are saying he “hit” Trouba 😂 Wilson was not worried about Trouba. Trouba ram full speed to stop Wilson and put his head on Wilson’s elbow cause he couldn’t keep up with his speed.

[@Emotionless0000]

We call that ''karma'' where I'm from x)

[@toddmurphy3245]

Trouba used his face to make the hit🤣

[@brianpistolwhip]

That wasn't a hit. You tricked me!

[@BillyAu]

Trouba ran his head into Wilson's arm all by himself.😮..😂..as he was cutting across trying to score.

[@theovrionides7666]

I saw an elbow to the chops pal

[@dfsczar5150]

The MSG replay showed Trouba getting hit by Wilson. Sam and Joe didn't even notice it.

[@TheYamahog12]

Trouba ran into Wilson’s shoulder. It looked pretty harmless even on the replay.

[@johnminogue7360]

Joe misses quite a bit and quite often. Many times he is saying the goaltender made a great save when the sound of a puck ringing off the cage is clearly audible. Just not good as a color commentator.

[@NooBeRGoD]

Trouba ran his head into Wilson's elbow while attempting a massive hit. Live by the sword, Die by the sword.

[@ronaldkonkoma4356]

Or just reaching his stick out to try to stop the shot

[@TheYamahog12]

He obviously didn’t attempt a “massive hit”.

[@daingladstone2326]

where was the hit

[@ronaldkonkoma4356]

When you cannot evict a person from your head, you can find problems if you look for them.

[@codyhertzler2387]

Lol skates into him head first. Brilliant move

[@pwc1021]

If someone gets hurt and Tom Wilson is in the vicinity.....it's always Wilson's fault. 😉

[@LucicPower]

Trouba deserves all he gets

[@scottisgood9230]

Love to see it

[@runningthesw5788]

Think they call that a chicken wing

[@jcstokes2490]

Hockey play. No intent, but it is Wilson and always have to question it.

[@bills1338]

Would be the first to vilify Wilson (well maybe not the first, but among the first), but he did absolutely nothing wrong here. Looks like WIlson's upper arm and shoulder connected with the side of Trouba's head and neck, but the contact was certainly not deliberate and, for a change, certainly not dirty. Hopefully not a concussion nor anything that would keep Trouba out for an extended period.

[@ronaldkonkoma4356]

Agree He took the angle for the shot and possibly tried to use his body to shield, but it looks as though he was 100% focused on taking the shot.

[@SuggyPopSodaBoy]

Trouba has been laying people out all year, but he ain’t laying out Wilson

[@justinthomas85]

Trouba is soft if he isnt decking guys with their head down.

L comment.

Head up

Hahaha! You’re soft as you call an actual professional athlete soft.

100% correct

[@JayLesykWx]

[@sbinnala]

Trouba is fine today, he participated fully in practice.

[@BigVuVu]

it's a shame that it was Wilson who hit him, not someone else

[@joemorris108]

Delusional Pittsburgh announcers would’ve said it’s a chicken wing and it was intentional then fan base would cry forever about it. Notice a real fan base says nothing about this and just continues on. Shows how much that play was blown out of proportion cause it’s cry baby Crosby

[@vengezize2708]

Rent free lmao

[@ronaldkonkoma4356]

Forearm shiver is the term I've heard thrown around the announcers booths this year. If modern announcers had to broadcast in the 70's they would curl up and sob. Guys were literally jumping up and aiming both elbows at the head back then.

[@frankt285]

However or, whatever it happened Wilson, was allowed to play on the tracks without the fear of becoming a passenger on The Trouba Train and, I'm sure a diet of Jell-O plus, Morphine for a bit... Reaves will forever be Wilson's daddy.....😊😮😮😮

[@bobhenry6159]

Trouba needs glasses.

[@frankt285]

The Trouba Train just needs to knock the gingivitis outta Wilson.. Put Wilson on a diet of Jell-O plus, Morphine for a bit...😊😮😮😮

[@ronaldkonkoma4356]

I was very injured And my skates fell off

[@ronaldkonkoma4356]

​@frankt285 may I refer you to The Lion in the Vegas series. Once you start watching you can't stop. Time how long it takes for Wilson's helmet to come out of orbit.

[@SlavaUkraini86]

Chicken wing!

[@ronaldkonkoma4356]

I'm starving Do we have any Pittsburgh Wild Wings?

[@Ratstick58]

Fuck Wilson but trouba was just hustling into that - no foul play. Trouba reminds me of kronwall. You hate to see your skilled players smashed but he’s not a dirty instigator. Just a huge checking threat.

[@gepabbate9103]

Couldn't see it clearly but it wouldn't surprise ANYONE if the thug wilson intentionally elbowed Trouba. He has a LONG history of dirty hits.

[@timothyehrler4325]

But you couldn't see it? So tell me: how it was a dirty hit?

Cool. Trouba’s fine. Wilson just put a target on every Capitals player. Better keep your heads up every minute of every game going forward. Trouba Train Alwayss shows up on schedule
