As a freshman , Wilson achieved a point average of over 1.0 (38 in 37 games) and was subsequently named Rookie of the Year at Hockey East and voted into the league's all-rookie team. The following year, the Canadian won the Hockey East playoffs with the River Hawks and subsequently reached the Frozen Four , the final of the US university championship, where they lost in the semifinals of Yale University . After another season in Massachusetts, Wilson signed an entry level contract in April 2014 with the Pittsburgh Penguins, who made him debut a little later with their farm team , the Wilkes-Barre / Scranton Penguins , in the American Hockey League (AHL).

As expected, Wilson spent most of the following season 2014/15 in the AHL, where he came to 41 scorer points in 55 games . He also made his debut for the Penguins in the National Hockey League (NHL) in December 2014 , which was followed by three more games in the 2015 Stanley Cup playoffs. The attacker spent the 2015/16 season in constant alternation between the AHL and the NHL, again achieving a points average of over 1.0 in the AHL (36 in 34 games). In March 2016, the Penguins extended his contract, which was due to expire next summer, by two years. With the start of the 2016/17 season, Wilson finally established himself in Pittsburgh's NHL squad and will henceforth be used regularly. At the end of the season he won the Stanley Cup with the Penguins .

In October 2017, the Penguins gave him and a third-round vote for the 2018 NHL Entry Draft to the Detroit Red Wings and in return received Riley Sheahan and a five-round vote for the same draft. Just over a month later, Wilson moved on to the Buffalo Sabers , who sent him a five-round suffrage in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft to Detroit.
