Wilson's high stick was more than likely an accident, especially given his reaction to the play immediately after. However, it is hard to predict what the NHL might hand out, especially given the inconsistencies.
The play didn't stop the Leafs from performing, as they needed the win, especially after making some significant lineup changes on defence, and sitting their top forward at the start of the game.
