    Default Tom Wilson upside?

    Will he peak to a 50pt 200PIM guy? Maybe a steady 40pt and 150PIM player?
    Hopefully better than what Clarkson has shown us thus far.

    I think, offensively, there's a little more there in terms of upside. But 50 points is probably more likely

    He hasn't exactly been used well in Washington so far. Should probably have been better served playing 20 minutes a night in junior or the AHL or wherever he would have played (too lazy to look it up).

    Well, he's no Steve Downie, lol! But seriously, I'm high on his fantasy potential, but if he's only going to be used as a fourth line energy guy, then it's going to be a while before he sees a sniff of 50 or even 40 points.

    He'll need at least another year likely two before he'll hold value in most league setups, but to me his upside is that of a cross-breed between Wayne Simmonds and Matt Martin. You're looking at a guy who will challenge for the "hits" title and could probably net 15-20 goals just because of how powerful he is...he'll get a lot of goals just by being in front of the net.
