The Seattle Kraken recalled forwards Shane Wright and Ryan Winterton from the AHL's Coachella Valley Firebirds on Wednesday.
Wright was drafted fourth overall by the Kraken in 2022. He received an exemption from the NHL-CHL agreement to be eligible to play in the AHL this season despite being a 2004-born player. Wright has four goals and six points in seven contests to commence the AHL campaign.
The Burlington, Ontario, native split the 2022-23 season between the NHL, AHL, OHL, and world juniors.
Winterton, 20, began his professional career in October after a four-year OHL career with the Hamilton Bulldogs and London Knights. The 2021 third-round pick has three goals and five points in seven games with Coachella Valley.
The Kraken face the Colorado Avalanche on Thursday.
