Tom Wilson remains in the picture, and that is a relief if you have him in your hockey pool. Elliotte Friedman reported Sunday that there would be no supplemental discipline.

What Friedman and Sportsnet said

On X, Friedman wrote that he was hearing no supplemental discipline for Tom Wilson.

Sportsnet followed that report and specified it was for Wilson's hit on Sandis Vilmanis. The network cited Friedman.

Vilmanis had left Saturday's game between the Panthers and the Capitals, which led to Jack Devine being recalled Sunday morning.

What it means for poolers

Wilson is not suspended. He remains available, whether you play a points pool, a category league, a salary cap format or a keeper pool. If you already have him, you do not need to look for a replacement because of a discipline absence.

The report does not add anything new about Vilmanis beyond what was already known Saturday: he had to leave the game.
