Montreal Canadiens forward Josh Anderson and Washington Capitals forward Tom Wilson were fined $5,000 each for unsportsmanlike conduct following a wrestling match that spilled into Washington’s bench during game three, receiving roughing minors and misconducts. Capitals coach Spencer Carbery described the incident as a result of competitive spirit, while Wilson’s history of physical play includes five suspensions and numerous fines, contrasting with Anderson’s first fine. With the Canadiens winning 6-3 and the series tightening, future encounters between the two forwards may arise.
