Tom Wilson, a key member of the Washington Capitals for many years, appears to be staying with the team. Although a trade might bring in a significant haul, this seems less probable now.
Wilson expected to remain with Capitals
The speculation about Tom Wilson possibly leaving the Capitals was discussed on the 32 Thoughts podcast by Elliotte Friedman.
Considering the Capitals' current uncertainty in competitive standing, many anticipated that Wilson, earning $5.166 million annually with a year left on his contract, could be wearing a different team's jersey soon.
Typically, players like Wilson can command considerable trade value, and it would make sense for the Capitals to leverage this.
However, it seems that Wilson is poised to play a significant role in their future, suggesting he's not leaving Washington anytime soon.
Fans of the Capitals must now keep their fingers crossed that the team's rebuilding process is successful. Alongside teammates Backstrom and Ovechkin, Wilson will strive for another Stanley Cup before it's too late.
