Wilson had 12 PIM and two hits in a 5-2 loss to the Ducks on Sunday.
Impact
Wilson and Ducks forward Nick Ritchie received matching misconducts with five minutes left in the third period. Wilson's fantasy appeal comes from his hard-nosed playing style, which has seen him earn 89 PIM and 114 hits in 40 appearances this season.
Wilson recorded an empty-net goal, an assist, a plus-2 rating, two hits and four shots during Thursday's 5-1 win over the Sharks.
Impact
Wilson has a new career high of 15 goals and is well on his way to shattering his career-best 35 points from 2017-18. The 24-year-old has broad fantasy appeal given his offensive contributions and prowess in peripheral categories like hits (112) and penalty minutes (77).
Wilson registered a goal, six hits and six shots during Friday's 4-3 victory over the Flames.
Impact
Wilson has gone somewhat quiet with just two points in his last eight games but is still managing 0.75 points per game over the course of 2018-19. Once a prized possession strictly in deeper formats where his pugilistic feats were rewarded, the 24-year-old winger has a chance to crack the 50-point barrier if everything goes well, which gives him broad fantasy appeal for the remainder of the season.
Wilson tallied an assist, a plus-2 rating, two shots and five hits during Thursday's 4-2 win over the Bruins.
Impact
Wilson continues to do his part to shake his reputation as a dangerous goon with his 22nd point in 24 games. Time will tell if the 24-year-old is truly reformed, but his offensive production has skyrocketed in 2018-19 and gives him broad appeal across the fantasy spectrum.
Wilson tallied a goal and four shots during Sunday's 3-2 win over the Red Wings.
Impact
Wilson has cooled off a little in recent weeks after missing three games due to a concussion in early December, but has still managed 12 goals and 20 points in 22 games. The 6-foot-4, 218-pound winger continues to have broad fantasy appeal as he is on track to finish with 30-plus goals and over 50 points for the first time in his NHL career.
Wilson is still coming to grips with his 14-game suspension, Andy Strickland of Fox Sports Midwest reports.
Impact
Wilson admitted he's not hitting as much for fear of facing supplemental discipline, and the numbers seem to bear that out (averaging 2.8 hits per game versus 3.2 hits per game in 2017-18). The 24-year-old winger is likely in for a difficult outing in his first appearance in St. Louis since the infamous hit on Blues forward Oskar Sundqvist in the preseason. Time will tell if the Toronto native is truly a changed man, but the decline in hits (54) and PIM (30) coupled with the improvement in his offensive totals (11 goals, 19 points in 19 games) certainly suggest he's trying.
Wilson recorded a goal, an assist and two shots during Saturday's 3-2 win over the Senators.
Impact
Wilson has been on a tear since returning from a 14-game suspension on Oct. 27, notching eight goals and 19 points in 18 games. Now a potent offensive force, the 24-year-old winger has moved from the fringes of fantasy relevance to more broad appeal and should be played regularly.
Wilson provided the game-winning goal in Friday's 2-1 triumph over the visiting Sabres.
Impact
Evgeny Kuznetsov caught a lackadaisical Carter Hutton attempting to control the puck from behind the cage, so he ripped it away and fed Wilson for a go-ahead third-period goal that held up as the winning tally. While he's no longer on the top line, Wilson is still getting it done for fantasy owners, as he's up to 10 goals and seven helpers in just 15 games. As long as he stays out of trouble, the 24-year-old winger should continue to thrive for the defending champs.
Wilson (concussion) is expected to play Friday following a three-game injury layoff, Isabelle Khurshudyan of The Washington Post reports.
Impact
Recall that Wilson was drilled by Vegas enforcer Ryan Reaves in a Dec. 4 road game, which some viewed as poetic justice for the Capitals forward, who certainly delivers his share of questionable hits and is no stranger to the league's player safety division. At any rate, Wilson's fantasy owners will be eager to get him back into lineups, as he's off to a career-best offensive pace with eight goals and six assists through his first 11 games.
Wilson (concussion) took the ice during practice Tuesday, sporting a non-contact jersey.
Impact
Wilson was not skating as of Monday, though he was considered a candidate to retake the ice later in the week. Just a day later is a minor surprise, but it puts the veteran thumper on his path toward returning. Shedding the non-contact jersey marks Wilson's next step toward a return, so look out for news of that occurrence.
