Timeline

2004

Shane Wright (born January 5, 2004) is a Canadian professional ice hockey centre for the Coachella Valley Firebirds of the American Hockey League (AHL) as a prospect to the Seattle Kraken of the National Hockey League (NHL).

Projected as the likely first overall pick leading up to the 2022 NHL Entry draft, Wright was selected fourth overall by the Seattle Kraken.

Internationally, Wright won gold as a member of Canada national under-18 team at the 2021 IIHF World U18 Championships and Canada national junior team at the 2023 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships.

2019

Wright was granted exceptional player status for the 2019–20 season, becoming the sixth player to be granted exceptional status.

The preceding five players were John Tavares, Aaron Ekblad, Connor McDavid, Sean Day and Joe Veleno.

Wright was drafted by the Kingston Frontenacs with the first overall selection in the 2019 OHL Priority Selection.

On September 20, 2019, Wright made his OHL debut at the age of 15, as he was held to no points in a 4–1 loss to the Oshawa Generals.

One week later, on September 27, Wright scored the first OHL goal in his career against Andrew MacLean of the Oshawa Generals in a 4–1 loss.

On October 4, Wright had his first career multi-point game in his OHL career, scoring a goal and adding an assist in an 8–4 loss to the Niagara IceDogs.

Wright recorded his first multi-goal game on October 11, as he scored twice, including the overtime winning goal, in a 4–3 victory over the Niagara IceDogs.

On December 30, the Frontenacs named Wright an alternate captain of the team, as he became the youngest team captain in CHL history.

On February 29, Wright recorded his first career OHL hat trick, as he scored three goals and added an assist for a career-high four points in a game in a 6–1 win over the Flint Firebirds.

Wright finished the 2019–20 season with 39 goals and 66 points in 58 games.

Wright was named the winner of the Emms Family Award for OHL Rookie of the Year.

2020

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020–21 season was cancelled, leaving Wright without a league to play in.

His only competitive hockey in that span was an appearance at the 2021 IIHF World U18 Championships.

Wright returned to the Frontenacs for the 2021–22 season.

On October 8, 2021, he was named captain of the team, making him the youngest captain in OHL history.

Expectations were high based on his rookie season, his performance internationally, and his presumptive status as the first overall pick in the NHL draft, but the season began with only 22 points in 19 games in his first two months.

Many attributed this in part to the loss of the prior OHL season.

However, he was widely credited with taking major strides in performance for the remainder.

Wright finished the regular season with 32 goals and 62 assists, the former less than in his debut season, the latter a significant increase.

The Frontenacs qualified for the OHL playoffs, and faced the Oshawa Generals in the first round.

Wright scored the series-winning goal in overtime of Game 6 to eliminate the Generals and advance to the second round.

The Frontenacs were eliminated by the North Bay Battalion in the second round, concluding his season.

After spending the fall of 2022 playing variously in the NHL, the AHL, and the World Junior Championships, Wright was sent back to the OHL by the Kraken management for the second half of the 2022–23 season.

With the Frontenacs not considered to be a competitive team, it was widely speculated that he would soon be traded to another team in advance of the OHL's trade deadline for the OHL playoffs, with teams such as the Ottawa 67's, London Knights, Barrie Colts, and Peterborough Petes rumoured to be interested.

Despite rumours that placed the London Knights as frontrunners to secure Wright in trade, on January 9, 2023, he was traded to the Windsor Spitfires in exchange for Ethan Miedema, Gavin McCarthy, five draft picks, and two additional conditional draft picks.

This trade was the last of a series of transactions by the Spitfires, the defending OHL Western Conference champions, in advance of the 2023 playoffs.

Windsor general manager Bill Bowler said that "anytime you get the captain of the gold-medal winning Team Canada junior team is a great day for the organization and the City of Windsor."

Wright played twenty games in the regular season, notching 15 goals and 22 assists, while the Spitfires finished first in the Western Conference and entered their first round playoff series against the Kitchener Rangers as the top seed.

Wright managed one goal and two assists in four playoff games, before the Spitfires were upset in a sweep by the Rangers.

Considered the presumptive first overall pick in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft at the start of the season, Wright's status began to be called into question by the midpoint of the 2021–22 season, with many scouts saying that he had "left the door open for someone to unseat him."

As the draft approached, debate largely focused on the merits of Wright versus Slovak winger Juraj Slafkovský of Liiga's TPS.

The first overall pick was won by the Montreal Canadiens, whose general manager, Kent Hughes, confirmed days before the draft that the choice was between Wright, Slafkovský, and Logan Cooley of the USNTDP.

Ultimately the Canadiens used the first overall pick to select Slafkovský, the New Jersey Devils selected Šimon Nemec second and the Arizona Coyotes selected Cooley third, giving the Seattle Kraken an opportunity to draft Wright with the fourth overall pick.

He remarked afterward that he was "definitely gonna have a chip on my shoulder" as to being passed over by the first three teams.

On July 13, 2022, Wright signed a three-year entry level contract with the Kraken worth $2.85 million over three years.

Kraken general manager Ron Francis stated that he believed Wright would likely play the season with the Kraken.

He played 6:14 in his NHL debut on October 12 in a 5–4 overtime loss to the Anaheim Ducks.
