A closer look at the hit that could lead to Tom Wilson's suspension.

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.
