The Seattle Kraken Send Shane Wright Packing

In a strategic move, the Seattle Kraken have opted to send promising talent Shane Wright to their AHL affiliate, Coachella Valley. Wright, chosen as the fourth overall pick in the 2022 NHL Draft, showcased his potential by netting his inaugural NHL goal during a spirited game against the Montreal Canadiens on December 6.

This decision comes after an impactful eight-game stretch in the NHL following his recall from the American Hockey League.

The reassignment to Coachella Valley aligns with the Kraken's commitment to nurturing young talent and providing players like Wright with additional development opportunities.

As the AHL proves to be a valuable training ground for emerging stars, Wright's stint with Coachella Valley is poised to further refine his skills and contribute to his growth as a key asset for the Seattle Kraken in the future.
