He will never live up to it, he's overpaid because Head of Security George f***ing Parros let him head hunt all the way to the Cup. If they crack down on that shit then he becomes even more overpaid like way more. Watch him do his dirty work in PO again if he either doesn't nearly play that dirty during regular season or shit head Georgie boy is still there in said PO.Of course he's not worth 5m. But neither does he need to be able to headshot people to be valuable to his team. He's like a young/prime Kunitz in his ability to use his speed and a willingness to hit anything that moves. The difference is that unlike Kunitz, Wilson doesn't limit things to clean hits (or even mostly cleanish hits), but targets the head whenever possible and doesn't seem to give two ****s about the legality of his hits. And while prime Kunitz was still a 50+ pt player, Wilson even without his goon tactics can probably still be that type of guy - especially given his age.
So while I think it will be hard for him to ever really live up to that contract, neither would it change all that much even if the officials cracked down on his ****.
This is game regression and Caps Cup has a blood money contract over it.
Bettman's BS about cracking down on headshots makes him a joke now that it looks like he's got his balls squeezed by a corrupt Security Department. Maybe an upcoming CBA war makes Bettman pleasing to the NHLPA in order to soften'em up, i don't know.
