He should at least be suspended for 20 or so games. This is far from his first incident.

Tom Wilson has been fined $5K; no further discipline from NHL.
The fine is the maximum allowable under the Collective Bargaining Agreement
The NHL focused on three factors in assessing supplemental discipline for Wilson. The first was his fall on Buchnevich in the crease, which the league felt wasn’t egregious and that Wilson didn’t drive down on Buchnevich’s neck with his stick.
The second was Wilson’s gloved punch to the back of Buchnevich’s head while the Rangers player was on the ice. The force and location of the punch were a consideration; ultimately, the league considered the incident to be commonplace within the context of a scrum around the net, but worthy of a fine.
When it came to Wilson throwing Panarin to the ice, the league also felt it was commonplace when players engage during a scrum. Wilson didn’t seek out Panarin to assail him. Panarin jumped on Wilson’s back to pull him away from Strome, and Wilson responded by throwing him to the ice twice. The NHL did not find ample evidence that Wilson pulled Panarin down to the ice by his hair, which was a popular theory on social media on Monday night. Source: ESPN
Fined only $5k?? Weird!
This could probably be the reason:
“The NHL has sat him down to talk about his style of play so many times that there’s probably a Tom Wilson Naughty Chair in the league’s head office.”
I agree. Probably has a ‘godfather’ over there
I know! He should at least be banned for the rest of the season and the playoffs, and he should have to apply for readmission to the league next season. He nearly killed Artemi Panarin last night.
He had been suspended many times in the past and fined. I am sure they are currently debating his ban. His tactics are not good for the game
It’s possible NHL will end up doing nothing. But I agree with this
