Signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Predators in March of 2025.
Earns first NHL assist
Wood notched an assist in Monday's 7-3 loss to Utah.
ANALYSIS
This was Wood's fifth game since signing out of the University of Minnesota. The 20-year-old was listed on the second line Monday, but he has mostly seen usage in line with a bottom-six forward so far. In addition to his first career assist, the winger has seven shots on net, two hits, two blocked shots, two PIM and a minus-1 rating. The first-round pick from 2023 will make a push for a full-time NHL gig in 2025-26.
