Shane Wright

21-Year-Old CenterC
Seattle Kraken
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Through his first two seasons, Wright was limited to just 16 games with the Kraken in which he garnered five goals on 16 shots, two assists and 12 blocks. With the offseason addition of Chandler Stephenson, the 20-year-old Wright could struggle to break into the top six, which will limit his chances of providing offensive upside. The offensive upside is there for the Ontario native, he racked up 22 goals and 25 assists in 59 regular-season games with AHL Coachella Valley last year, but his opportunities to show may continue to be limited due to the logjam down the middle. Still, Wright figures to be a high-risk, high-reward option heading into the 2024-25 campaign. If he can force his way into more minutes, he could produce at a high level. Read Past Outlooks

Sends game to overtime
CSeattle Kraken
April 13, 2025
Wright scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-3 shootout win over the Blues.
ANALYSIS
Wright's tally 9:53 into the third period forced overtime after the teams exchanged four goals in a span of 3:09. The 21-year-old center has two goals and an assist over six outings in April. For the season, he's up to 19 goals, 43 points, 91 shots on net, 61 blocked shots, 54 hits and a plus-5 rating across 78 appearances. He's blossomed into a reliable two-way center in his first full campaign, though Wright could stand to shoot the puck more.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
There's no telling where Wright might begin 2023-24, or if he'll stay there all year. His age (19) means he'd likely be going back to OHL Windsor if he doesn't break camp with the Kraken, but he could get an exception to join AHL Coachella Valley if the Kraken want to pursue that path in his development. The center had two points in eight NHL games, 15 points in 32 AHL outings and 40 points over 24 contests in the junior ranks last year. Wright still has some wrinkles in his game to work out, so he'd likely benefit from another year outside of the NHL to become a more complete player, but there's no questioning his scoring talent.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Non-starter in trade talks
CSeattle Kraken
June 5, 2024
Wright's name has been brought up in trade conversations, but Kraken general manager Ron Francis has no interest in trading the center, Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Wright is apparently very much part of the Kraken's future plans, even as their need for a couple of scoring forwards is glaringly obvious. The Kraken have been linked to a few forwards via trade or free agency already, but any potential trade package likely won't include Wright. The 20-year-old center put up 47 points in 59 regular-season contests for AHL Coachella Valley and added five points in eight games with Seattle.
