Tom Wilson is streaking (for him).
The physics-defying, immovable object tallied his first apple of the season, a secondary assist on John Carlson’s first period goal – a booming slap shot off Andrei Vasilevskiy’s glove.

Look at this incredible exhibition of skill.
Willy Baby now has two points in his last six games. This comes after tallying only one solitary point in his first 26 to start the season.
He’s also drawing penalties at a rate similar to two seasons ago.
Among players who have appeared in at least 30 games this season, #Caps RW Tom Wilson is tied for 4th in drawn penalties per 60 at 1.98.

Yay, Tom. I expect a party in the comments.
You know what they say, an apple in 32 games keeps the healthy scratches away. https://t.co/TUM7JBgv0o
