Ok dude. Wilson has been our most creative and consistent forward all year(other than Smith). And who cares if most of his points are on the PP. We rarely score ES anyway, no one is really scoring even strength.
And didnt Wilson score an OT winner at ES recently. It doesnt matter what you say, he shouldnt be on that line. Sk should.
your right and your wrong. Wilson should be on the top line with Craig Smith and your wrong about Sk he should off the team somehow someway. He's not the same player anymore. He acts like Ville now
Before that when he passed it straight to the defender and DET had a 3 on 1 cause of it. And hes been playing like **** lately regardless.
I do agree and I've been a fanboi of him since he arrived. It's sad to see him play like this. I want to see him go back to his form from last year. Just shows how smart Poile was to only give him a 1 year deal and keep him a RFA to re-evalutate him after this season. You think he'd be playing his ass off to get another pay raise.
Ugh. Bad giveaway by SK. He should have tried to go out to the right dman rather than just blindly throwing it behind him once he was between the circle and the blueline.
Sk was one of my favorites last year. I had no doubt he would have a good year and he was looking good before his first injury. Since hes been soft, scared, and lazy.

The Tootoo, Wilson, Spaling line is generating chances and is working. Toots has actually been one of our hottest ES scorers over the past month (3ESG,3ESA going back to the game before Thanksgiving ... with a suspension in there). Wilson is generating most of his production of late on the advantage with two total ES goals dating back to 15 Nov. Toots has better goals and point per 60 mins of 5on5 time than Wilson. Sorry .. but the assertion that Wilson is "best forward offensively the last 8 games" is extremely subjective at best.
We don't run a traditional top line, 2nd line, 3rd line ... in reality they are pretty much 1A, 1B, 1C or 1, 2A, 2B.

I dont understand you sometimes, Wilson is a 1st line player. Tootoo isnt. Yes Tootoo is scoring lately but hes not going to keep up all the offense during the whole year. He doesnt have the creativity. Wilson should be with Smith and Legwand. You wont change my mind.
