Wood was traded to the Kraken from the Predators in exchange for Shane Wright on Sunday, Darren Dreger of TSN reports.
After generating 30 points in 71 regular-season appearances last year, Wood recorded a goal, two assists, 12 hits, six blocked shots and four PIM while averaging 14:03 of ice time across his first 14 appearances of the 2026-27 campaign. He's slated to become a restricted free agent over the summer, and it's possible that he's able to reach an agreement with the Kraken following Sunday's trade.

Wood recorded a power-play goal, served two PIM and dished out two hits in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canadiens.
After penciling in his first point of the new season in Tuesday's clash with Toronto, Wood found the back of the net for his first goal of the campaign on a power play in the final minute of Thursday's second period, which tied the game. The 21-year-old forward has moved inside to center for his sophomore campaign, and he's shown no signs of needing an adjustment period. He was an excellent goal scorer as a rookie, posting 17 tallies and 30 points across 71 games in 2025-26. He's expected to have a top-six role for the majority of the new season, making him an excellent player to roster in dynasty-based fantasy formats, as well as a solid stash in deep redraft leagues.

Wood scored a goal Saturday in a 2-1 win over Minnesota.
Wood's second-period goal stood as the winner. He scored on a wrist shot from the inside edge of the right circle off a sweet feed from Steven Stamkos. It was Wood's first goal in nine games and 17th overall this season. He sits in a three-way tie with Ben Kindel of the Penguins and Fraser Minten of the Bruins on the rookie sniper list.

Wood scored a goal and added two hits in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.
Wood snapped a three-game slump with the tally. The 21-year-old forward continues to work down the middle, though he's winning just 43.9 percent of his faceoffs on the year. Wood is showing top-six potential with 26 points, 91 shots on net, 44 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 60 appearances in his rookie year. He's also averaging just 12:08 of ice time, so he needs to round out his game to be trusted with more minutes.

Wood scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Jets.
Wood gave the Predators a 3-2 lead late in the third period with a snap shot to score his 15th goal of the season. The 21-year-old has been productive in his first full year in the NHL, generating 25 points through 56 appearances. Wood has been on a tear of late with six points (five goals, one assist) over his last six games. He has failed to crack the scoresheet on only one occasion in that span.
