Colorado Avalanche left wing Miles Wood will miss the next 7-10 days with an upper-body injury. Wood joins a number of other attacking players on the shelf, meaning defenseman Oliver Kylington will be used as a forward on Wednesday versus Tampa Bay. Nikolai Kovalenko will move to the first line, while Ivan Ivan gets to roll with the second line. The latter is also expected to be part of the top power-play unit. Despite missing some of its best players, Colorado has the third-best power play in the league with a 33.3 percent efficiency. The team faces a struggling 71.9 percent penalty kill on Wednesday.
Colorado Avalanche left wing Miles Wood (undisclosed) will play against the Senators on Sunday. His status for the game was initially uncertain after Wood sat out Saturday's practice with an undisclosed injury. Wood mostly skates in a bottom-six role for the Avalanche and has seen very little success offensively this season. Through eight contests, he boasts one goal with 15 shots. However, Wood could do some damage on Sunday as a member of the second power-play unit, as Ottawa has struggled on the penalty kill in 2024-25.
Colorado Avalanche left wing Miles Wood (upper body) will play against Anaheim on Friday. Wood has said he's "good to go" for the game despite leaving Wednesday's matchup against Boston with an upper-body injury. This is great news for the Avalanche, whose frontline has been decimated by injuries. Wood has logged one goal with eight shots in four games this season. He's set to skate on the fourth line in Friday's game.
Colorado Avalanche left wing Miles Wood made an early exit against Boston on Wednesday after suffering an apparent arm injury. He was injured when absorbing a hit from Bruins forward Elias Lindholm. Wood recorded one shot on goal in 12:46 of ice time before being forced to leave the game. Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar didn't have an update on Wood after the game. A significant injury to Wood would be a major blow for the Avalanche, who are already without four forwards. With few quality options left, Bednar pushed Wood up to the first line for Wednesday's tilt. Nikolai Kovalenko and Ross Colton have also seen time there following Jonathan Drouin's (upper body) exit from the lineup.
Colorado Avalanche winger Miles Wood completed the team's unlikely comeback in Game 1 of their second-round series against the Dallas Stars, posting the overtime winner in a 4-3 victory. Wood was sprung on a partial breakaway, and took care of business by zipping around the Dallas defender and sliding the puck past Jake Oettinger. Wood has been a role player for the Avalanche this year, and sometimes those are the players you need to step up in a game like this. The Avs will look to take a 2-0 stranglehold in the series on Thursday in Dallas.
Colorado Avalanche left wing Miles Wood (illness) will remain sidelined for Wednesday's clash with Vegas. He's been battling an illness and has to sit out a third straight game. Wood has notched 12 points (six goals, six assists) in a bottom-six role across 39 outings. Defenseman Josh Manson (undisclosed) has also been ruled out for a second consecutive game for the 26-12-3 Avalanche, who have heated up lately with five wins in six games.
New Jersey Devils left wing Miles Wood has undergone hip surgery and will be sidelined indefinitely. The 26-year-old, who posted 17 goals and eight assists in 55 games last season, injured his right hip during a preseason game and hasn't been able to help the team during the regular season. "After exhausting all conservative measures, and in consultation with team medical providers and external specialists, Miles has elected to receive surgery," announced the Devils in a statement. New Jersey has scored 2.50 goals per game without Wood in the lineup, sitting 26th in scoring in the league this season.
Miles Wood Set To Return To Lineup For Saturday's Action
New Jersey Devils left wing Miles Wood (upper body) is expected to be available for Saturday's matchup against the Islanders. He missed New Jersey's 2-1 win over New York on Thursday. Wood has gone pointless in four games, but he's been the team's best goal-scorer this season with 17 markers and has 25 points in 53 games. The 25-year-old was on a three-game goal streak prior to his current dry spell. Andreas Johnsson and Jonas Siegenthaler will also get into the lineup as the Devils go for a sixth win in seven games.
New Jersey Devils left wing Miles Wood scored in a third consecutive game on Tuesday, helping the team to a 6-4 victory over Philadelphia. The 25-year-old recorded three shots in the game with one hit in 12:29. He now boasts six goals and 10 points for the month in 15 games, reaching 17 goals and 25 points for the whole campaign. Wood will be looking to record his first-ever four-game goal-scoring streak in another meeting with Philly on Thursday. He has two goals and two assists in five games in the matchup this season.
New Jersey Devils left wing Miles Wood scored in a second consecutive game and added an assist in Sunday's 4-3 shootout loss against Philadelphia. He helped Michael McLeod on the scoreboard and Pavel Zacha also scored for New Jersey. Wood boasts a team-best 16 goals for the campaign, and he's bagged 24 points in 48 appearances with 116 shots. The Buffalo-born winger will look to record his second three-game goal streak of the season in another meeting with the Flyers on Tuesday. Philly allows 3.48 goals a night, so there should be plenty of scoring chances for Wood and the rest of the Devils.
New Jersey Devils left wing Miles Wood celebrated two goals in Friday's 6-4 loss to Pittsburgh, getting the scoring started for his team and finishing it off as well. Jack Hughes and Jesper Boqvist also scored for New Jersey. Wood is the team's leading goal-scorer this season with 13 markers in 39 games. He's been very effective in front of the goal, doing his damage with 96 shots to produce a 13.5 shooting percentage. Wood, who boasts 18 points for the year, hasn't managed to impress much, but he's on a line with New Jersey's two best scorers Pavel Zacha and Jesper Bratt, which puts the 25-year-old in a good spot to perform. Bratt, who posted one assist on Friday, has gone pointless just twice in his last 14 games.
New Jersey Devils forward Miles Wood picked up three assists on Sunday, registering two goals and an assist in a win over the Sabres. Wood came into the game with five points on the season, and without a goal in nearly two weeks, but pulled himself into a tie with Jack Hughes for most points on the Devils after today's performance. After just barely missing the 20-goal plateau three seasons ago, Wood saw a drop off in his goals per game rate and shooting percentage but has rediscovered his scoring touch this year with a 20.8 percent shooting percentage across nine games. That conversion rate sits well above his career average (8.6 percent) and his career-best (11.2 percent), so regression is almost certainly coming for him in a big way, but a career-best 2.67 shots per game rate could help him hold on to that hot streak for a bit longer. Wood should only be looked at in deeper leagues and as a value play in daily formats, but with his hot start, a 20-goal pace is not out of the question.
