I remember people saying that about the Oshie deal last year. Look what happened. Wait and see what happens boys.
Would you say that it is more reasonable that his ~400 regular season games are actually what he is or his ~20 playoff games?
Man I really like Wilson but wow this is a bad, bad contract. Like holy ****.
It's gonna be fun bumping this thread next season.
He's gonna put up 40-50 points playing consistently on that top line. He was a monster in the playoffs once he got a shot with 8 and 92.

To all the stat checking NHL fans out there, he would have gotten 5 million on the open market easily. Tom Wilson is more than fighter. He opens up the ice for Kuzy and OV.

I would take Wilson on my team all day long. He makes **** happen out there.
Typical HF. Since its a smidge over $5 million it's a bad contract. If he was a smidge under it would be a good contract.
$5 million is the O/U for bad contracts on this board and it's nonsense.

Oshie is good defensively but not as much as Wilson, and the gap in their skating is huge. Wilson is low-key really really fast, and there's nobody else around his size that even comes close. That's gonna become a huge asset as we keep moving towards being much more of a skating league. The guy absolutely dominated the speed teams this Spring.? Oshie had a few 50 point seasons before his contract and has been great for the Caps since day 1.
The fact that Wilson is now making almost as much as Oshie is bad...as Oshie is much better.
He was a RFA with no real good season yet...How the hell didn't the caps get Wilson for 3-4 mil per is beyond me. Horrible management.
