The National Hockey League's Department of Player Safety announced a hearing for Washington Capitals forward Tom Wilson, but until now a great many fans have not even seen the hit that led to the hearing.
The hit, which took place during a preseason game that has much lower viewership than your usual regular season games was delivered to the back of St. Louis Blues forward Samue Blais and led to a brief fight between Wilson and Brayden Schenn after the fact.
Wilson has a history of run-ins with the NHL's Department of Player Safety, so with a hearing scheduled many believe this will be a guaranteed suspension for the repeat offender.
Here's a look at both the hit and the fight.
