Uncover the Shocking Draft Blunders and Hidden Gems Unveiled for Every NHL Team This Decade
Seattle Kraken
Best: Shane Wright
Shane Wright took a significant step this season and looks like a potential steal at fourth overall for the Kraken at the 2022 NHL Draft. Wright’s two-way intelligence and skating speed popped off the ice for Seattle this season, and hinted strongly at the sort of difference-maker that Wright has an opportunity to develop into in the years to come.
Worst: Incomplete
Other issues have held Seattle back from succeeding right off the hop, but the Kraken have drafted well in their existence to this point. The only players they selected in the first two rounds of the 2021 and 2022 NHL Drafts who haven’t tracked well and already played NHL games are David Goyette and Jagger Firkus, both of whom had flashed in the AHL as 21-year-olds this past season. — Thomas Drance
