Take a deep breath. Yes the Caps overpaid for Wilson. However, Wilson is trending in the right direction offensively. This could very well end up being an alright deal for Wilson. The Orlov contract is a good contract because he's playing at a very high level, Wilson could very well do the same. Mac is very good at evaluating talent and putting together a winning team. The guy is the architect of the first ever Stanley Cup champion team in the history of the organization.
And I see people complain about the Oshie deal and I get it. It's a long time and he probably won't be worth it at the end. But someone else would have given that to him and the Caps made the right call keeping him. he became an enormous part to the Cup run. Not every contract is going to be pretty when it's first signed. Let's see how this all unfolds this year.
