Since the beginning of the season, Shane Wright's situation with the Seattle Kraken has been the talk of the town. His use was clearly controversial, as he was only in uniform with the Kraken for seven games out of 20 games before being sent to the AHL for reconditioning purposes.
Since his arrival with the club-school, Shane Wright has had success with the Coachella Valley Firebirds. In four games, the former Kingston Frontenacs OHL captain has scored four goals.
So there would be a real chance of Wright lining up with Team Canada for the World Junior Championship in late December. This is good news for him, as well as for the Canadian program, which will benefit from adding one of the best players of his age to its roster.
