(VIDEO): Mark Zidlicky's huge hip-check sends Wilson sailing!

Detroit Red Wings defenseman Marek Zidlicky got whistled for clipping on this hip check. And yes, the legality of the hit can certainly be questioned. What can’t be questioned, however, is that Zidlicky’s hit sent Washington Capitals winger Tom Wilson for a pretty good ride. The Wings will be looking for more of this tonight (minus the 2 minutes) against the Carolina Hurricanes. In 18 games with the Red Wings since the deadline, Zidlicky has registered three goals and 10 points while averaging over 18 minutes per game. Detroit had long been reported to be chasing after a right-handed defenseman for their blueline and the acquisition of Zidlicky has been tremendous. Keep it up Zidlicky!
