Wilson was hit with a double minor for high sticking Celebrini with under three minutes left in regulation, before William Eklund scored the game-winning power play goal for San Jose in OT.
The Capitals’ power play was red-hot going into this contest (even without Alex Ovechkin), but the team went 0-for-3 on the man advantage against the Sharks.
