That's just the thing. There are very few players on this team who go out of their way to make a hit. Wilson is one and I already made my case about him. Oshie is as likely to get injured as he is to positively contribute by chasing hits. Hathaway and Dowd have a job to do that's way more important than establishing a physical presence. Neither is really looking for contact much anymore. Dillon has no clue when to step up for a big hit and when to just establish containment. Chara and Orlov don't chase hits. They do exactly what I'd like to see Wilson do. Same goes for Eller/Panik.
What about Vrana, Kuznetsov, Backstrom, Jensen, Schultz, Sheary, Sprong, etc? I think they'd much rather just play hockey.
Ovechkin can do whatever the hell he wants, as far as I'm concerned.
