Fans Step Up to Cover Josh Anderson's Fine After Incident With Wilson During Canadiens-Capitals Game

Anderson was handed a fine because of what happened at the Washington Capitals' bench Friday night at the Bell Centre, during Game 3.

Well, thanks to a classy gesture and a great initiative launched by BPM Sports host Max Lalonde, Anderson ultimately won't have to pay (nor will the Montreal Canadiens).

Let's remember that Anderson was indeed fined due to the following incident.

All the details are in the article below.

In short, we are talking about a $5,000 fine.

In response to this fine, Max Lalonde decided to launch a GoFundMe to prevent Anderson from having to pay, because according to many, Anderson shouldn't have to pay for taking care of Tom Wilson.

Here's the core of his message.

And the post in question:

I love it!

You can imagine the movement quickly gained momentum and many fans chipped in!

Please note that, as Max Lalonde clearly stated, if they end up collecting more than $5,000 (the amount of the fine), all excess funds will be donated to a foundation for a good cause.

I already can't wait for Wednesday, for Game 5 between the Montreal Canadiens and the Washington Capitals.

It's likely to get heated once again, especially between Josh Anderson and Tom Wilson.
