Wright was called up from Coachella Valley (AHL) on Sunday and was skating alongside Jaden Schwartz and Jordan Eberle at Seattle's morning skate and is expected to suit up vs. San Jose. The 20-year-old former fourth-overall pick appeared in three games earlier this season with the Kraken but failed to produce anything while averaging just 9:47 TOI/GP.
Wright has earned his second call up of the season after a produtive first third of the season with Coachella (AHL) which saw him collect nine goals, seven assist, and six PIMs in 18 games played. The 2022 fourth overall pick has appeared in three games with the Kraken this season, picking up one SOG with limited TOI.
Wright failed to pick up a point in three games and had one only SOG while averaging 9:47 TOI and has been reassigned to Coachella Valley (AHL) Tuesday. The 19-year-old centre returns to the minors, where he started the season successfully with four goals and six points in seven games prior to his promotion.
With Jordan Eberle (cut by skate) day-to-day, Wright finds his way into the Kraken's lineup for the first time this season Thursday vs. Colorado after being recalled from Coachella Valley (AHL) earlier in the day. The 19-year-old made his NHL debut last season and had a goal, an assist, four SOG, two PIMs and a +4 plus/minus in eight games prior to being sent back to junior. In seven games prior to his promotion, he had four goals and six points with Coachella Valley.
Wright is one day off from scoring one of the goals of the World Junior Tournament as he helped lead Team Canada to a gold medal victory over Czechia but will now head back to Kingston (OHL) instead of Seattle (NHL). In 8 games with the Kraken, he had a goal and an assist but will make a massive addition back to Kingston after 32 goals and 62 assists in 63 games in 2021-22.
Wright had four goals in his last five games with the Coachella Firebirds (AHL) and will make his way back into Seattle's lineup after being recalled Monday. The 2022, 1st round pick (4th overall) has one assist and only one SOG through seven games played earlier in the year with the Kraken and will be hoping to improve on his 8:06 ATOI.
Wright has been a healthy scratch for the last five games and has only appeared in seven of 18 games this season. Wright can stay with Coachella Valley for a maximum of 14 days.
