Team: Wisconsin Badgers
Born: June 11th, 1992

Stats:

third year eligible prospect, son of Ducks assistant coach Bob Woods. Beyond that I don't know much about him, didn't notice him much the few games I did see of Wisconsin on NHL Network.

20 already and never been a big point producer but the size is intriguing. Probably a future bottom 6er if anything.

He's a son of Ducks' assistant coach Bob Woods.

This is where we should be taking flyers on lower rated Euros with supreme talent. Steal a page out of the Red Wings playbook. This guy will never sniff even Charlotte I bet.

Yep, looks like Woods went to the Ducks when Boudreau did.

An article written by Tim Leone, the Hershey Bears beat writer, with quotes from Brendan and Bob Woods. (Woods played and coached in Hershey before making it to the NHL as an asst. coach.)

Taking a page out of the Wings playbook requires luxuries like effective European scouts and deep connections to their leagues.

For us, it would be JR thumbing through a copy of the THN Prospect Issue until he sees a nice smile.
