Wilson (lower body) is not expected to return to action against Carolina on Tuesday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson will be shelved for his sixth consecutive contest due to his lingering lower-body issue. On the year, the pesky winger has been limited to just eight appearances in which he tallied two goals on 13 shots, one assist and 33 hits while averaging 14:55 of ice time. With Alex Ovechkin (personal) unavailable, the Caps are pretty thin at forward, though Anthony Mantha (illness) will return Tuesday.

Wilson (lower body) skated before Thursday's practice, per Tarik El-Bashir of The Athletic.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson didn't stay on for Washington's practice though and was seen with a noticeable limp after he left the ice. The 28-year-old has two goals and three points in eight contests while averaging 14:55 of ice time this season. He last played Jan. 24 and it remains to be seen if Wilson will be available for Saturday's game against Boston.

Wilson (lower body) won't play until after the All-Star break, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson, who sat out Thursday's contest against Pittsburgh after getting injured Tuesday versus Colorado following a shot block, will miss at least the next two games. The Capitals return from the break Feb. 11 in Boston. Wilson has supplied two goals, one assist, 13 shots on net and 33 hits in eight appearances this season. Anthony Mantha stands a good chance to stay in the top-six forward group of the Capitals until Wilson is able to return.

Wilson (lower body) will be a game-time decision for Thursday's showdown with the Penguins, Samantha Pell of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson exited in the second period of Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Avalanche and did not partake in Thursday's morning skate, but is officially a game-time call. The 28-year-old winger has two goals and three points in eight games -- alongside a paltry minus-7 rating.

Wilson (lower body) won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson blocked a shot off of his right leg in the second period, which is the opposite leg from the one he had ACL surgery on last spring. He can be considered day-to-day for now, and he'll likely be evaluated further when the Capitals return home to face the Penguins on Thursday.

Wilson scored a goal and an assist on one shot, helping the Capitals to a 4-0 win over the Coyotes on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson scored a power-play goal by redirecting Dmitry Orlov's point shot to extend the Capitals' lead to 3-0. He would also pick up an assist on Sonny Milano's goal earlier in the second period. Ever since returning from a torn ACL, Wilson notched his first multi-point game and has three points in six games. The Canadian forward should continue to skate in the Capitals' top-six forward core and second power-play unit.
