Miles Wood signs with Avalanche

Even with Twitter down, the deals still get done.

This one involved the New Jersey Devils and the Colorado Avalanche, and forward Miles Wood. He was a UFA and will move to Denver but no contract details have been confirmed.

Wood had 27 points in 76 games last year with the Devils, 13 goals, and 14 assists to be exact. Wood drew the second-most penalties on the Devils last year, 56 minutes worth of penalties. But, he also takes penalties himself as he has 56 minutes worth last year too.

He is a hard skater who can get in on the forecheck, something the Avs were missing last year, especially in the playoffs.
