And to think, if someone cross checked watson in the face with a stick and made him drink steak through a straw for 6 months, that person would be the bad guy….

Hey you can’t blame him for trying to win…maybe that shot would have gotten lucky and bounced in and also counted as 4 goals

This is not a hockey play. League should consider changing rules around this situation

I thought he should get suspended. Not because of any Lauzon injury but because teeing one up at a guy after the game is not a hockey play and completely unsportsmanlike

Watson shouldn’t be anywhere near the best league in the world. Such a bad fucking player and seemingly a bad person too.

This is the kind of shit you pull at the end of a game in EA NHL

NHL suspension wheel is a joke

I know this isn’t the point, but I love how oddly specific that fine is. Especially the 57 cents at the end.

Glad to see Motte skate over to see if he is OK, Watson is such a joke

I’m a die hard lightning fan and even I think this dude sucks. Not a good look for the team

Nobody kicked his ass?

That’ll teach him to not do that again.

NHL cares more about MAF’s helmet than enforcing actual suspensions. Say it louder – best sport, worst league. Embarrassing

Is Lauzon ok? He’s been my secret on my banger league with outperforming Ovi at this point.

Ok now the NHL is just mocking us with this spin-the-wheel punishment shit. $2022.57?? Wtf is this the price is right?

Player Safety did not do their job here. Hopefully, another player gets some retribution on Watson this season. Guys keep notes on this type of behavior and will act accordingly. Fuck, Austin Watson.

Tampa being sore losers, per usual

I hate the Perds almost as much as the Blackhawks…but come on. That’s just awful. Dirtbag move.

A move worthy of the “Fucking Idiot” variety.

i heard about this and initially thought it sounded dumb that he’d be fined for this. now that i’ve seen the video and actually have the context of the situation, he’s lucky he didn’t get suspended. i mean holy shit, they are down 5-1 and he’s still in the tampa zone. what the hell did he think that slap shot was going to do? i can’t think of any other reason he’d fire that shot other than attempting to injure lauzon.

What a Ahole… Attempt to injure.. 2 games minimum
[Watson](https://youtu.be/gV7lz6wCcfM?si=xukZfMReJlqvhlZl) right now I’m sure
Was that bettman’s last dinner tab?
Man, the Bolts are shitty when they lose.
Also on a deliberate or flagrant penalty, if you injure a player and he misses game time, then you miss same amount of time
« You hit that guy! »
« He shouldn’t’ve been standing there! »
Fucking hate Watson. Ironically, I’ve hated him since he was pulling this shit WITH Nashville.
Wow. This will hurt. 2000 bucks
Watson is a dumbfuck alcoholic who beats women. pretty gross the Lightning even gave this loser a second chance.
Does he get to tally the blocked shot?
Dick move
Everyone knows you’re supposed to shoot those at the zebras.
Oh no! 2000 smackaroos! Oh dear!
NHL is a clown show when it comes to penalties and enforcement.
definitely not surprised.. watson is a p.o.s.
What a fuckin prick
They couldn’t round up to the nearest $
