No, it's not just Montreal Canadiens fans who haven't exactly appreciated Tom Wilson during the playoffs.
For those who aren't following as closely, it's currently the same situation for Carolina Hurricanes fans, who are now facing Wilson and the Capitals in the second round of the 2025 playoffs.
The Hurricanes and their fans hate Wilson, and we got a pretty direct and tangible proof of that, as a rather strange ban was announced in Carolina (involving the rugged Capitals forward).
Tom Wilson is banned from a movie theater in Carolina and denied entry
You should know that the owner of this theater is a huge hockey fan, and it seems he didn't particularly appreciate Wilson's attitude toward "his" Hurricanes.
Whether it's because of his dangerous hits:
Or because of his "dives" spotted by fans, Wilson continues to irritate his opponents.
"The famous Rialto Theater in Raleigh is making its stance crystal clear, having decided to ban Wilson from all showings, even taking the time to display it in big letters on their main sign outside the entrance."
That says a lot!
It also proves that Habs fans were probably right, they're not the only ones who aren't exactly fond of him.
That said, we have to admit this kind of move perfectly captures the playoff fever spirit!
Drove by the Rialto Theater in the heart of Raleigh's classic old Five Points neighborhood.
