Tom Wilson

Tom Wilson had a humorous encounter with a young student during a visit to a Washington D.C. school.

On Tuesday, Wilson and Washington Capitals teammates Nicklas Backstrom and Braden Holtby made the day of students at Hendley Elementary School by delivering laptops and tablets. During their visit, the players had the opportunity to meet and greet young fans.

While with a group of kids, Wilson extended his hand to shake hands with a student who rejected him with a death stare.

Ouch.

Fortunately, there were others who were eager to shake Wilson’s hand. That was some stare though. Maybe the student is a Penguins fan?
