He should try redirecting that intensity to his game instead

Seattle should be set down the middle for the next ten years. Good for them

It's a bit different, MacKinnon was unanimous #1 on bob's list to start the year, Jones overtook him by mid season, but MacKinnon had the top spot again at the end.
Wrights fall reminds me a bit of Kessel where he was long the #1 and fell during his draft year
What a clown. Go cry about it

I love it. I hope he haunts the Toilet Seats, Debs and Houston Coyotes for a long time.

Yeah, but even then it was pretty widely accepted at the time of the draft that Kessel wasn't going #1.
This kind of fall is essentially unprecedented in the modern era.

Always lots of haters out there. Perhaps they would all prefer him to say that "I'm not sure I should be rated the number 1 player in the draft".

Why shouldn't he feel like telling the Habs to shove it up their ass? Good for him. Montreal's pick better out perform Wright or they will have one pissed off fan base. Can't wait to see them go head to head in a few years.

He's got no one but himself to blame with his play this year, it just wasn't good enough.
If ever there was a wake up call this is it.

This might be a good thing for Wright going fourth and dropping like that.
the full story has yet to be written, it's up to him now.

It wasn't "hate" to point out to a mass of people who didn't know any better that Wright wasn't the surefire #1 and that a lot of folks were grossly overlooking some very talented prospects. It was rationality.
We weren't the ones being emotional about this.

I’m just glad that the first round is over.
I don’t have to hear about every little thing that pop in Canadiens fans heads any more.
The prospect section can now be de-cluttered from grown men arguing day and night about “Mr.Exeptional Status” and how there was a clear #1 option, scoffing at all the knowledge posters on this site that had clearly watched these prospects and formed their own opinions on the players from watching film - these posters trying their best to get Habs fans off their high horse to no avail.
The prospect section can be a place of harmony again.
Wright in Seattle will be great for him - zero pressure environment with all the opportunities in the world to succeed.

Teams liked the skill and potential but then noticed how far he shaves the hair behind his ears. Show of low character.

He will probably reach the second round of the playoffs, before your beloved team.

2 is better than one
This might be the best thing for him:
* Less pressure
* Escape the fishbowl that is Montreal
* Has another top-flight center in his age range in Seattle
He can focus on his game and maybe develop a bit more of a killer instinct.
naw, we'll see some interesting pivots who argue the highs and lows of their season. This place is cyclical. Never true harmony.

Snipers are a dying bread in the NHL
I wish we had taken Wright as a Habs fan even after he dropped
le sigh
he really must have interviewed poorly or something tho? to fall to 4th like that

He's played uninspired hockey for over a year. On the other hand, you have players who are doing everything they can to over achieve.
