In search of some offensive punch, the Predators have recalled forward Matthew Wood, a 2023 first-round draft pick, from Milwaukee of the American Hockey League.

The 6-4, 202-pound Wood played six games for Nashville last season after making his NHL debut on April 6, posting one assist. He had played two games for Milwaukee this season, scoring his first goal as a professional Oct. 18 vs the Texas Stars.
