Maybe but at 50% retained they may not.Because it's very likely his new club would also put him in the AHL..?

Do not be surprised if he plays in Boston again this season is all I'm saying.a Calder Cup?
Could someone be a lamb and explain the obsession with Miles Wood?
He has size and speed and I think some bruins fans think he combines that with a serious physical game. However, he hits less than guys like Kuraly and Nordstrom. He will fight if needed. He scored 19 goals a few seasons ago and is on pace for 12 this year.
I don't think he's an upgrade on anyone in the bruins lineup and carries a 2.75M cap hit. I'd pass without hesitation. He's not what some think he is..... Kind of like Josh Anderson.
Really? He’s hated among Devils’ fans?No one wants the Bruins to trade for Miles Wood more than Devils fans.

I sincerely doubt that.
Sometimes there are just players that get latched onto around here. I guess he sort of is a Diet Josh Anderson.

He's ZimaIf Josh Anderson was a Bud Light, Miles Wood is a Natty Light.... If we're comparing the two.
What they need is Colt45. Someone who works every timeIf Josh Anderson was a Bud Light, Miles Wood is a Natty Light.... If we're comparing the two.
Reading through some comments about Wood, he seems like a whipping boy. Not a lot of positive things said about the player.
I'm really sick of people looking at hits numbers and drawing literally any conclusions about a player from them. Nevermind that it's often wildly inaccurate, but it only tells you quantity and nothing about quality.
not saying I disagree about Wood (I honestly don't see him enough to say), but saying he "hits less than Kuraly" is irrelevant. in the 2010/2011 season for example, Boychuk had 2 fewer hits than Greg Campbell (in less games, true, but Campbell had ~2 more hits per 60). The point is we all know which of these 2 guys was a more ferocious, impactful hitter but you'd never know it from looking at the hits column.
Rakell and Gudbranson. Fills 2 holes. Top-6 RW and physical right shot dman (Miller replacement). Both signed one more year at reasonable cap hits.
Have to get creative and move out some cap. Miller/ Moore?
1st + Zboril + Senyshyn? Whom else?

Perhaps the irony of my statement wasn’t clear. I’m aware of who Wood is, I just don’t get the obsession. I’ve seen him play quite a few times and he’s a pretty mediocre player. Honestly if you are looking for what he brings just call up Frederic.
