Prospect Info: Shane Wright (Round 1, Pick #4, 2022 draft)

[majormajor]

Smart move by Shane. No reason to play in that tournament and risk your career. He's got a future and has already played in that tournament, captained the squad and won. Absolutely nothing left to prove there.

I don't really think it matters much either way. If he went he'd have the same injury risk as playing in the AHL. If he felt inspired to go then I'd let him. I don't know if he does.

But he’d be developing against men. That’s more valuable a situation to get injured in

Although CV lost to Henderson on Wednesday, Wright had another goal; up to 5 goals in 8 AHL games, keep it going Shane!

 

[Hocktopus]

CV wins in a shoot out last night over Tuscon with Wright collecting another goal in regulation.

Shane Wright scored on Jack Campbell last night and I honestly can't tell how the main boards would be feeling about this.

Hahahaha. Good stuff

 

[The Marquis]

He's just under a point per game in the AHL, so things are looking pretty decent. I think it's going to keep improving.

Bring him up and keep him up. Too many underachievers on the Kraken already. He couldn’t do any worse than most of our lineup that can’t find the back of the net anyhow.

The problem with that is you’re putting a kid in a losing environment who the casuals expect to be a saviour.

Shane is in a great spot for his development right now.

That does not help the team or Shane. A big issue last season was that he was moving between multiple leagues and never got to build any chemistry or have enough time to settle down. He finally has that for the first time in 2 seasons with Coachella and is starting to click.

Moving him up to a bargain-basement team like Seattle will do nothing more than hurt the confidence that he has been able to build on this season. Leave him there and let him develop.

Shane developing is much more important for our future than winning 5-10 more games in a season that is already starting to look like a lost one. Only way I would want to bring Shane up is if we have injury related callups or for a playoff run.

He got a goal and an assist yesterday. He is up to a point per game.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

And also!

 

[The Marquis]

I think he has 18 points in 19 games, so far so good. Keep it going and see where it goes.

Kid has 16 points in 16 games. PPG now.

Oh dude…. You are right and I’m dumb as shit. My math is bonkers and I forgot he hadn’t played every game. I manage very large budgets for a living and f***ed up 9+7.

That's why you are The Marquis rather than The Count.

 

[sigma six]

I'm glad he's getting a chance to put up big numbers in the AHL. We don't need him to be Bedard, but if he were up with Seattle the rest of the year, he'd just be getting bottom-6 minutes anyway.

Let him dominate down on the farm for a year+.

Damn right. I own more land than some piddly count.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Third-period game-tying goal tonight as part of a 3-1 comeback win.

 

[OilersFanatics505]

Two goals today

 

[bmore236]

I believe he also hit the post.

 

[bmore236]

Didn't watch, but got 3 assists in today's game.

Wasn’t it a goal and 2 assists? My app I use for box scores might be lagging if it changed.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Currently showing that Wright got the fifth goal (his 14th) and two helpers.
