EDGE Analysis

Wilson tallied midway through the first period to open the scoring. The 31-year-old winger has compiled eight goals, five assists, 16 shots, 27 hits and a plus-12 rating over his last 10 outings.

He's at nine goals, 16 points, 32 shots on net, 39 hits, 29 PIM and a plus-6 rating over 14 contests in 2025-26. Wilson will slow down -- he's shooting 28.1 percent this year after posting a career-high 19.5 percent mark in 2024-25 -- but he does enough all around to continue to help fantasy managers.
