Wilson (upper body) will be in the lineup Sunday against the Islanders, Isabelle Khurshudyan of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

The rugged winger had been out of action since being injured in Washington's first preseason game against Montreal. With so much depth on the wings, it's hard to say exactly where the 22-year-old power forward will slot into the lineup, although he is almost assured a bottom-six role. Still, his contributions in peripheral stats like hits and penalty minutes should not be overlooked, as he is one of the league's premier pugilists. He is definitely worth a look in leagues that count such contributions, but his value in standard leagues will remain limited until he can carve out a more meaningful offensive role.
