Wilson Delivers Grit and Leadership for Team Canada at Milan Olympics
Tom Wilson has been a standout for Team Canada in Milan, blending physicality with leadership as coach Jon Cooper lauds him as outstanding in the locker room. He backed Nathan MacKinnon after a high hit, got into a fight to defend a teammate, and has been deployed on the top line with Connor McDavid and Macklin Celebrini. With a goal and two assists in three games, Wilson helps Canada, the tournament’s top seed, push toward a gold medal as they advance to the knockout stage.
