Isabelle Khurshudyan of the Washington Post: Both T.J. Oshie and Tom Wilson were injured on Saturday.
“I won’t really have an idea until tomorrow,” Coach Barry Trotz said. “We’ll see where is and reevaluate him tomorrow morning and then make a call on that. Tom Wilson, same thing. I think both of them are sort of wait-and-see until later tonight or first thing in the morning.”
Oshie has an upper-body injury. Wilson has a lower-body injury after blocking a shot.
Brett Connolly took Oskie’s spot on the line with Alex OVechkin and Nicklas Backstrom.

“There can’t be (a timeline) on any of these (concussions).”
He could be out a week or longer.
“He’s watching practice with a big smile on his face,” said Maurice. “He’s not feeling 100 per cent, he’s not feeling fresh but he’s walking around and looking good. And he’s got (Nikolaj) Ehlers as a chauffeur for the next little while. He’s in good shape.”
