DC_1908:
This is easily my favorite GMBetaMale signing yet,
Willies camp must of made him tap out as it took this long to get a no-brainer, great contract signed. But none the less we will at least have one blue collar, alpha, throwback, old school real hockey player on this team for a while!

I predict that Wilson will be the next captain for the Capitals when Ovie retires.

I guess Orpik gets his "A" back? I was thinking Willy deserved that, immediately.. Anyway, love the signing!! I like it when players earn a good salary NOT just based on stats.. He does stuff you can't put on paper! People (well, some anyway) over on HF freaking out cause he got a dollar over 5 mil. lol

I expected Wilson to be 4.5 at most. Bit of an overpayment IMO, but glad it's 6 years.

For 6 years you have to overpay a little. We have done this with a few quality players now, upping the salary a bit to make sure we get the term we want on some of these guys. I'm overall happy with the contract, although I do think Wilson has to (and likely will) show some improvements on the stat sheet this upcoming season and beyond.
