During the 2018–19 season, on November 4, 2018, a video was released showing Wideman and six of his teammates criticizing the Ottawa Senators and mocking assistant coach Marty Raymond while riding in the back of an Uber vehicle in Phoenix, Arizona.
The video had been recorded on October 29, 2018, without the players' knowledge, with Wideman and his then-teammate Matt Duchene talking the most in the video.
