Kraken recall Shane Wright from AHL

The Seattle Kraken promoted their top prospect Shane Wright from the AHL's Coachella Valley Firebirds on Sunday, the club announced.

Wright has recorded 20 goals and 23 assists with the Firebirds this season. He spent three games up with the Kraken earlier in the campaign but failed to record a point. The 20-year-old center also played in eight games with Seattle last season, notching a goal and an assist.

The Kraken selected Wright with the No. 4 pick in the 2022 NHL Draft. For a long time, he was projected to go first overall after he was granted exceptional status into the OHL as a 15-year-old.

Wright enjoyed a stellar OHL career with 197 points in 141 career games between the Kingston Frontenacs and the Windsor Spitfires. He also captained Canada to a gold medal at the 2023 World Junior Championship.
