Tom Wilson day-to-day, out for Game 2

Washington Capitals forward Tom Wilson didn't play in Game 2 against the Florida Panthers on Thursday night after suffering a lower-body injury early in the series opener.

Head coach Peter Laviolette didn't want to speculate on Wilson's status for Game 3 and said that he's day-to-day with the injury, according to the Washington Post's Samantha Pell.

Wilson opened Game 1 with a power-play marker but ended up playing under two minutes in the contest. He exited after attempting to hit Panthers defenseman Mackenzie Weegar.

The 28-year-old came out of the tunnel during a commercial break to take a couple of laps but didn't end up returning.

Wilson managed a career-high 24 goals and added 28 assists in 78 regular-season contests.
