Wilson is dealing with an undisclosed injury and will not play in Monday's Game 1 against the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
The news comes as the team takes the ice for pregame warmups. Nothing had been mentioned prior to the Stanley Cup Finals about any type of injury issue, but with four points in 12 postseason contests, the Predators shouldn't miss Wilson's production all that much. Craig Smith, who has sat out 11 of the past 12 games with an undisclosed injury, is reportedly good to go and is on the ice for warmups, so he'll presumably take Wilson's spot in the lineup.

Wilson scored the opening goal of Wednesday's Game 1 win over St. Louis on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
After missing all of Round 1 with a lower-body injury, Wilson didn't waste any time reminding everyone that he's capable of upping his game in the playoffs. He's now scored 11 goals and 19 points through his past 21 postseason contests, and his two-way game will be a welcomed addition to the Nashville attack. Don't forget Wilson when you're looking for cap relief in daily contests.

Wilson (lower body) will return to Nashville's lineup for Wednesday's Game 1 against the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson has missed the Predators' last six contests while recovering from a lower-body ailment, but he'll return to a bottom-six role for Game 1, skating with Colton Sissons and P.A. Parenteau on Nashville's third line. The 27-year-old winger was a solid contributor for the Predators this season, notching 35 points (12 goals, 23 assists) and 113 shots on goal in 70 games, so he could be a sneaky play in daily contests Wednesday.

Wilson (lower body) won't suit up for Game 4 against the Blackhawks on Thursday, Robby Stanley of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson has missed five straight games with this ailment and will sit out his sixth Thursday. In the 27-year-old's absence the Preds have shuffled around youngsters Kevin Fiala and Pontus Aberg on their second and third lines. Once Wilson is given the all clear, Harry Zolnierczyk figures to get bumped from the game-day lineup in favor of the Connecticut native.

Wilson (lower body) was absent from Monday's morning skate, casting doubt on his status for Game 3 against Chicago, Adam Vingan of The Tennessean reports.
EDGE Analysis
The one-time 20-goal scorer has yet to take the ice since suffering the injury sometime around April 4 and the team hasn't provided a timeline for his recovery. There is an outside chance that Wilson will make a shock return to the lineup, but expect Nashville to continue with the same group of forwards they have been using thus far in the postseason.

Wilson (lower body) is likely to sit out for Game 2 against the Blackhawks on Saturday, as Adam Vingan of The Tennessean indicates that the Predators don't appear to be making any lineup changes among the forwards based off morning skate.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson reportedly was omitted from the morning session, and now the veteran is bound to miss his fourth straight game, including two from the regular season. It'll be worth checking to ensure that Wilson isn't dropping goose eggs in your playoff pools.

Wilson (lower body) did not take pregame warmups, indicating that he is unlikely to play Thursday's opening playoff game against the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson was considered questionable going into Thursday night, but he will apparently not be healthy enough to go. On the bright side, Calle Jarnkrok appears to be ready to return, so the Preds will likely gain back one of their regular forwards for the crucial playoff opener.

Wilson (lower-body) did not skate in warmups before Saturday's game against the Jets, making it very unlikely he'll play.
EDGE Analysis
Looks like Wilson will miss the last two games of the regular season for the Predators. Now we just have to wait and see if he is ready to return when the playoffs begin.

Wilson collected an assist and two shots on net during Tuesday's overtime loss to the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old forward has flashed offensive upside throughout his career, but his well-rounded game has never translated into much fantasy success. Wilson has settled into a supporting role for Nashville this season and posted just 12 goals and 35 points through 70 games. While those numbers only move the needle in deep seasonal settings, he did pile up 10 goals and 18 points over 20 playoff games the past two yeasr, so perhaps another strong spring is in store. Keep Wilson on your radar for postseason settings and daily contests.
