I wouldn't call it 'alarmist,' because the flaws in his game we're complaining about currently are the same flaws he has exhibited consistently in his time here.
He has a role, but he always has. Can he fill it?
If there's a deal on the table that makes sense, I probably do it.
This goes for most players on the team, minus a select few.
But what deal would make sense for Wood? An OK defender? Got plenty of those. Another fwd? He's getting squeezed a bit now because we have so many. Some 2nd round picks/equivalent young prospect? Don't think they trade a roster guy for picks or decent prospects.
The glut of fwd talent, imo, does point to a trade, but down the line, let things settle out a bit, let these young guys establish themselves further. Could be towards the deadline, could be the offseason. And I think the trade would be a pretty big one. For a legit d-man.
