F Shane Wright - Kingston Frontenacs, OHL (2022 Draft) Part 2

[Junohockeyfan]

Man, all the Wright puns are tiring now.

Its like seeing someone call the Prime Minister Tru-dump and thinking they are clever.

I hope the Montreal reporters don't do this or Wright is going to request a trade after a couple months.

"hey Wright do you feel like the reason you won this game was because you played the WRIGHT way?"

For Habs fans, its our god given Wright to pen a pun.

The Price is Wright

 

[Fixxer]

So is it still going to be.....
The Price is Right?...

Or now is it ....
The Price is Wright?

I'll write this down...

We need Wright and Gaucher....

They could pick Slafkovsky and Cooley but two wrongs don’t make a Wright.

The scouts in the nhl black book think Shane Wright is overrated and some of them literally say the only reason Montreal is going to take them is because they have a first year GM and the draft is in Montreal..... They feel "pressured" to.... Damn.

Are they anonymous scouts, by chance?

All the negativity towards Wright will be a good thing for him and Habs. It lowers expectations and gives him ample motivation to prove the detractors wrong. Either way it doesn't matter after Hughes selects him 1st overall at the draft.

I doubt it will matter as soon as they draft him (assuming they do!) the naysayers will start claiming anything short of a superstar is a disappointment lol

That's what I always thought. Any team getting 1 OA must draft Wright.

This guy isn't a #1 centre in the NHL. He doesn't have the skill, vision or speed.

And six months later, the NHL scouts agree.

I can’t help but see a throuhline between the Alexis Lafreniere pick in 2020 and his slow development over the past couple of seasons and Wright falling on draft day as somehow connected.

Some years you just get these incumbent CHL first overall front runners who are almost unquestioned. Feels like a vote of non confidence in the Canadian developmental system and hype-information machine.

Kraken should have been drafting stud Jiricek to build defense around, not this bum...

Been watching him closely and he really hasn’t impressed me much at all at the WJS. Wright doesn’t have any defining offensive game breaking skill set that sets him apart.

Not saying he won’t be a good NHLer. Still think he can be a good 65-70 point centre with good two way play but there’s a reason he “fell” to 4 and I fully see it.
