Wilson garnered an assist to go with 12 PIM in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Rangers in Game 1.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson has points in four of his last five outings, notching one goal and three assists, including one power-play point, in that span. Heading into Game 2, Wilson should continue hold a top-six role given his offensive upside, though he is prone to spending a lot of time in the penalty box, which will limit his ability to produce.
