The incident occurred during the third period of Wednesday night's game between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Washington Capitals. Tom Wilson and Noah Gregor were battling along the boards in Washington's zone and after hitting the Maple Leafs forward, Wilson wildly swings his stick, making contact with his opponent's face.
Wilson was given a four-minute minor on the play for high-sticking, while Noah Gregor, who was in obvious pain on the ice, eventually made his way back to the Toronto Maple Leafs bench.
