Wilson (personal) returned to practice Friday, putting him on track to be in the lineup for the evening's matchup with Philadelphia, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wilson has 13 goals, 11 assists, 179 hits and 90 PIM in 57 outings this season. Wilson is expected to play on the top line alongside Hendrix Lapierre and Alex Ovechkin against the Flyers. He should also see first power-play time.

Wilson (personal) is not at practice Thursday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wilson has 13 goals, 11 assists, 179 hits and 90 PIM in 57 games this season. The Capitals are home versus the Flyers on Friday, so expect to hear more about Wilson's status before puck drop.

Wilson tallied two assists and added three hits and two blocked shots during Thursday's 5-3 win over the Lightning.

EDGE Analysis

This was Wilson's first multi-point game since Dec. 14 as the burly winger has been scuffling since suffering a broken nose in January with just one goal and four points in his last 16 games. With injuries mounting in their forward ranks, the Capitals will need Wilson to become a more consistent offensive producer as the 2023-24 season enters the home stretch.

Wilson (face) will play Saturday against the Rangers, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wilson will return to the lineup after sitting out Thursday's 4-1 loss to Seattle. He has produced 11 goals, 19 points, 107 shots on net, 111 hits and 70 PIM in 38 games this season. With Alex Ovechkin (lower body) unavailable, Wilson could receive an increased role in Saturday's contest.

Wilson (face) is hoping to suit up against the Rangers on Saturday, Tarik El-Bashir of Monumental Sports Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wilson has been practicing with a full shield after suffering a facial injury against the Kings on Sunday. The winger was considered a game-time call against Seattle on Thursday but was ultimately ruled out of that contest. If Wilson does play Saturday, he should slot into a top-six role, which could drop Hendrix Lapierre from the lineup entirely.

Wilson (face) won't play versus the Kraken on Thursday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wilson was considered a game-time decision but can't play. Alex Ovechkin (lower body) took the ice for warmups and will likely play, while one of Matthew Phillips or Hendrix Lapierre will cover for Wilson's absence.

Wilson (face) will be a game-time decision Thursday against Seattle, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wilson's status versus the Kraken won't be confirmed until the Capitals take the ice for pregame warmups, so fantasy managers should plan accordingly. The gritty winger has picked up 19 points and 111 hits through 38 contests this season.

Wilson is considered day-to-day with an upper-body injury, Tarik El-Bashir of Monumental Sports Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

For now, Wilson should be considered questionable for Thursday's game versus Seattle. He's picked up 19 points and 111 hits through 38 contests this season.

Wilson scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Thursday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran agitator had a sluggish November when it came to offense, but Wilson's picked up the pace over the last couple weeks, racking up six goals -- three on the man advantage -- and eight points in the last seven games with 24 PIM, 23 shots on net and 18 hits. Thursday's goal was his 10th of the season, putting him on pace for the first 30-goal campaign of his career.

Wilson scored a goal Saturday in a 4-0 win over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

He has registered five goals and six points in his past five outings. What was most impressive is that Wilson stole the puck, sped down the ice and called off Alex Ovechkin on a 2-on-1 to rip the puck over Igor Shesterkin's glove. You'd think he was the greatest goal scorer in the league. Wilson had just one shot Saturday, but he has been ripping pucks at a record pace this season. If he can stay healthy, Wilson could top 225 shots and score 30 goals, while racking up plenty of hits. That kind of fantasy impact is almost unheard of in today's NHL and that's why it's so valuable.
