Capitals' Tom Wilson suspended 6 games for high-sticking incident - ESPN (www.espn.com)

6 games is...a lot, but I can't argue with the justification for it. Utterly ridiculous act from a player I thought had figured this sort of stuff out.

Yeah, I feel like all parties involved expected a suspension.

This guy is dangerous and shouldn’t be in the league. He’s going to really hurt someone someday and the league won’t have any excuse.

I don't blame the NHL for giving him this many games. There's just no defense for that, even if it was accidental (an explanation I struggle to believe). I like Wilson, but that kind of thing just can't happen.
