wings didn't like him after a few months


botts is familiar with him, don't expect him to be anything special

there is a reason why the wings were given him and a 3rd for riley sheahan, who is also nothing special

is he an ok player, maybe but IMO it's another body for the bottom 6 for when gus/larsson gets moved

- homiedclown



Thats fine. But i wouldn't call it a "tank move"

This team/system needs a shake up. I said earlier if this was simply a move to improve Rochester or as a replacement for Larson, im totally fine with it.

the kid plays 7 to 10 minutes a night


the wings bailed on him after 17 games


to think he is a building block moving forward is insane

he is a body to plug and play while the purge continues and allows the kdis to play in rochester

Wilson can be a solid depth contributor. He was really solid for the Pens last year in the playoffs. When Geno's line was struggling for a bit, he was put on his wing and threw about 15 hits a game. Seemed to give them a spark.

Definitely worth it for a 5th rounder.

There are plenty of other warm bodies he could have picked up to keep the kids in Rochester. He saw him play in Pitt on a daily basis and win two Cups. We'll see now what he's got.

TRADE: We've acquired forward Scott Wilson from @DetroitRedWings in exchange for our 5th round pick in the 2019 #NHLDraft. https://t.co/eHjqZLofIN

No news. I brought up his interview at Sabres Dev camp. Didn't give me good vibes. That's all
