The Noon Countdown: Where There's a Wilson, There's a Way

23 - Number of days remaining until the 2016-17 season. But it's also...

...the number of points earned by Tom Wilson last season, a new career high (up from 17 in 2014-15). That was one of several milestones set by Wilson, including career-best totals in goals, assists, and average ice time.

The Caps signed Wilson to a two-year contract extension this summer and are hoping for even more from him, as they look to mold him into a Joel Ward/Mike Knuble-esque player with a knack for the net.
