What It Means:

Coach Barry Trotz explained why Wilson didn't practice on Monday saying that he "had tweaked a lower-body in the game the other day, so we just kept him off. Didn't want to aggravate it. He should be fine." Wilson referred to his absence as a maintenance day.

Wilson has 14 points (3 goals, 11 assists) in 42 games played this season, just 3 shy of his career high of 17 points, which came last season. He is failing to drive possession when on the ice however, as his Corsi For Percentage is 45.0 and his Relative Corsi For Percentage at Even Strength is -8.4. Both totals are significantly down from last season, where his numbers were 53.3 percent and 2.8, respectively. He also has the second most penalty minutes at 102. We project Wilson to record another 11 points (3 goals, 8 assists) over the remaining course of the season.
