The cameras were fixed on the Capitals striker… and it resulted in what we know today (hehe) :

He told the media at the Bell Centre who needs to learn to keep their mouths shut sometimes… and he came back to the situation from the last game, saying he wasn’t aiming for the whole Habs team when he played the baby.
Wilson specified that his gesture was aimed at a particular Habs player, and he didn’t want to name him… but we know he’s talking about Slaf:
“I wasn’t doing it to their whole team, it was for one guy-I’m not going to say who but he knows who it was. Obviously the camera was right on me, so I guess I should probably just shut up sometimes.” – Tom Wilson on wiping mock tears from his eyes in Game 1 #ALLCAPS pic.twitter.com/95M2cbQ3R2

Tom Wilson knows he may have lit a fire under the Habs by doing this, and he also knows he has to live with the consequences. But at least he’s aware of the fact that he’s done it… and it’ll be interesting to see if the CH will be able to make him pay.
I’d love to see Slaf freeze him out in the corner tonight!
The Caps forward had better strap on his skates, because he’s going to get his ass kicked between now and the end of the series.
Arber Xhekaj even started practicing his moves this morning at practice… :

Because if there are guys in the room who aren’t happy, it can affect the team’s results on the ice. And if that’s the case… maybe it can help the CH beat the Capitals in the first round.

– Good point!
Ivan Demidov and his linemates got the scoring started for the Canadies last game, and he’s going to be relied upon to bring that secondary scoring.
He’s improved from game to game, and I think moving him to PP1 have him the necessary experience and puck touches to get comfy.
