Good news for Shane Wright?

  1. So when do they hold their rookie and young guy training? Because preseason starts pretty soon. Are they going to let all these guys play in preseason and then lock roster down afterwards?

    Or do they basically know who’s made it before preseason?

  2. Good work GMRF. I think this will be the best outcome for his development if he doesn’t make the team straight out of the gate.

  3. Looks like John Barr was right when he said this 2 weeks ago ([post here](https://www.reddit.com/r/SeattleKraken/comments/1607suf/rumor_shane_wright_ahl_eligibility_decision_is/)).

    This is absolutely the right choice for Shane’s development and solves a major headache the Kraken have. The ideal path for Shane is to spend all season being a 1/2C in the AHL and then make the full time jump to the NHL for the 24-25 season when Wennberg’s contract expires. That will let him slot into the Kraken as 2C.

    Another benefit – his ELC would slide 1 more year if this happens.

    If there is a major injury to one of Beniers, Wennberg, or Gourde he might get extended NHL time this season. Without that, I just don’t see a place for him on the NHL roster.
