The Capitals drafted a one of a kind player in 2012 when they selected the big power forward Tom Wilson. 6'04'' and 220 pounds, he hits, fights and puts up big numbers on the board.
This deal has the potential to age extremely badly since Wilson will be turning 30 this year, meaning he'll be under contract until he's 37. Wilson's offensive production has been worth the $6.5M AAV. However, it's rare to see players improve their numbers once they've reached 30-years-old, especially forwards who play a physical type of game like Wilson.
