Tallies twice Thursday Wood scored two goals on three shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Bruins.

Impact Wood's first goal was shorthanded. The 21-year-old also got a look at center for this contest, winning six of nine faceoffs. Wood is a natural winger and it remains to be seen if he'll stick down the middle in the long run, but the Predators are short there currently due to Ryan O'Reilly's (face) absence) and the trade of Michael McCarron to the Wild earlier in the week. Wood is up to 12 goals, 21 points, 76 shots on net, 38 hits and a minus-1 rating over 51 appearances. He's an interesting speculative addition for fantasy as Nashville pivots toward a youth movement down the stretch.
