How Devils' Miles Wood learned to utilize hands at pro level

One of Miles Wood's goals over the summer involved working on his hands and stick work with the puck. But there's a caveat to that: Wood's hands were never that bad.

On the contrary, the Devils forward believed his hands have always been decent. When he hears he has bad hands, he just laughs a little to himself. There's just a difference between good and NHL good.

"You guys probably won't think this is true, but I've always had good hands. In high school I had good hands, college I had pretty good hands, but making that step from college to pro is a huge step," Wood said.
