Capitals' Wilson returns Saturday, starts on top line

Washington Capitals tough Tom Wilson is primed to return to the lineup Saturday night, when his club faces off against the physical, grinding St. Louis Blues.

Wilson has missed the past two games with a lower body injury, but will be in the lineup on Saturday. He'll also be playing in a prime spot in the Capitals lineup, alongside Nicklas Backstrom and Alex Ovechkin on the top-line, according to Alex Prewitt of the Washington Post.

Wilson, 20, has been limited to only six appearances as a result of injuries this season. In those six contests he's managed one goal and two assists, but if he can stay healthy and remain on a line with Ovechkin and Backstrom - that production could skyrocket.
