The Capitals forward wanted to take in all parts of the festivities.
Washington Capitals forward Tom Wilson saw his 2024 NHL All-Star Game run come to an end early when Team MacKinnon fell to Team McDavid in the semifinals of the 3-on-3 tournament, but he still made his way back to the ice surface for a good reason: to support his celebrity captain.
The 29-year-old, clad in his All-Star hoodie, shorts and a pair of slides, went back onto the ice, taking a seat next to Mitch Marner to watch Tate McRae's performance ahead of the final between Team Matthews and Team McDavid.
McRae was the celebrity captain for Team MacKinnon at this tournament. She announced Wilson's selection for Nathan MacKinnon's club, citing the need for some grit.
Wilson had a solid showing at his second NHL All-Star Game, registering two shots, a block and two face-off wins through 5:59 minutes of ice time. It marked Wilson's second career NHL All-Star Game appearance and his second in the last three seasons.
He wasn't leaving, though, without taking in some live music.
