Islanders' Kyle Okposo on Capitals' Tom Wilson: 'He's an idiot'

Brad Penner / USA TODAY Sports

You can question his intelligence, but Tom Wilson's impact can't be denied.

The Washington Capitals freight train played a little less than eight minutes in the overtime-extended Game 4, but had the New York Islanders' undivided attention in the room afterwards.

"He's an idiot," Kyle Okposo told reporters after the loss.

Wilson received his first of two minor penalties when he dropped Josh Bailey with a knee-on-knee collision before knocking Lubomir Visnovsky out of the game with a thunderous hit on the forecheck 22 seconds later.

The series is headed back to Washington knotted at two games apiece.
