Yes, I noticed Wilson's cagey phrasing on that. On the other hand, the horse isn't really out of the barn; it has not really been confirmed that his wife is with the CIA, and it's reasonable for someone in her position to at least want some doubts to linger. Moreover, since nothing has actually been confirmed regarding her work with the CIA, he might even subject himself to legal liability for stating that as fact.

Wilson is playing games.

I wouldn't doubt it. I think a lot of people are playing games.

If she was an undercover CIA agent, then the horse is out of the barn, because anyone in a position to have to deal with her will find out that she is likely to be an intelligence agent.

And whoever is playing games, good guy or bad, should be brought to justice. If Novak did endanger US Intelligence Agents with his report, even if he was just passing on what he was told, he should be prosecuted, as should whoever told him things. And if she is not an undercover agent, or if her role was already public knowledge, then those trying to smear the administration and/or Novak should be brought to justice as well (although there may not be any crime committed so it would have to be in civil court with financial penalties).
