Wilson (lower body) will be a game-time decision for Tuesday's matchup with the Islanders, Samantha Pell of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson skated in his usual spot on the Capitals' second line during morning skate, so he can probably be considered closer to probable than questionable against the Isles. Either way, confirmation on the 26-year-old winger's status should surface prior to puck drop.

Wilson (lower body) was on the ice prior to Monday's optional practice, Samantha Pell of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson's return to the ice is an encouraging sign, but without a full practice, his availability for Tuesday's home game against the Islanders remains uncertain. With three goals, six points and 22 hits in his first five games, the 26-year-old winger will be a well-rounded fantasy asset once he is able to return.

Wilson (lower body) won't be in the lineup for Sunday's game against Buffalo, Tarik El-Bashir of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson missed practice Saturday after getting hurt in Friday's game against Buffalo, and the 26-year-old is considered day-to-day. Wilson has gotten off to a hot start in 2021, racking up three goals and three assist through five games. His next chance to suit up is in Tuesday's game against the Islanders, and in Wilson's stead, Connor McMichael will make his NHL debut Sunday.

Wilson is considered day-to-day with his lower-body injury ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Sabres, Tarik El-Bashir of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson didn't practice Saturday after exiting Friday's win over Buffalo with a lower-body issue, so at this point, he should probably be considered questionable at best for Sunday's rematch. Another update on the big-bodied winger should surface ahead of puck drop against the Sabres.

Wilson left Friday's game with a lower-body injury and will not return.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson was shaken up in the second period and tried to return in the third but went to the locker room after just one shift. The team announced that he will be further evaluated Saturday, which means an update should be available before Sunday's rematch with Buffalo.

Wilson tallied a pair of goals and racked up a game-high 10 hits in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Managers who have Wilson rostered in hits leagues have to be beside themselves with Monday's performance. In addition to his double-digit total in that category, Wilson also scored twice in less than three minutes late in the first period. The 26-year-old has three goals and two assists through the first four games of the season. Surprisingly, the rambunctious winger has only taken a single minor penalty in the same stretch.

Wilson scored the game-winning goal and added an assist in Friday's 2-1 win over the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
He was actually involved in all three goals on the night, as Rasmus Ristolainen's point shot early in the third period deflected off Wilson's leg before ruining Vitek Vanecek's shutout bid. The veteran winger redeemed himself about seven minutes later by firing home the winner from the top of the circle on his only shot of the night. Wilson has posted back-to-back 20-goal, 40-point campaigns despite not playing more than 68 games in either, so this season's shortened schedule might not put a big dent in his final numbers.

Wilson produced an assist and a game-high 11 hits in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson's helper came on a dump-in during the first period that caromed oddly off the boards and straight to Alex Ovechkin, who tallied just 56 seconds into the game. After a slow start to the postseason, Wilson is heating up. The 26-year-old has a goal and two helpers in his last three games. Overall, he's added 19 PIM, 27 hits and six shots on goal through five contests.

Wilson scored the game-winning goal during Sunday's 2-1 win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
The Caps ended the round robin with a win thanks to Wilson, who beat the Boston defense to a loose puck and then flipped it top shelf over Tuukka Rask early in the third period. The goal was Wilson's first point of the postseason, giving him some nice momentum heading into a clash with the Islanders in Round 1.

Wilson tallied an assist, a plus-2 rating and two hits during Monday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
The helper gives Wilson a respectable eight goals and 17 points in his last 28 games since the start of 2020 -- along with a paltry minus-10 rating. The burly winger is doing a better job of staying out of the penalty box in 2019-20 and is having a career-year offensively (44 points) to show for it, giving him a more well-rounded fantasy appeal than he has historically provided.
