Fuels comeback with two points Wright scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Flames.

Impact Wright got the Kraken on the board at 13:12 of the third period, and he set up Andre Burakovsky's tying tally a couple of minutes later. With nine points over the last eight contests, Wright is one of the Kraken's hottest forwards right now. The 21-year-old center has settled in on the third line and is playing up to his lofty No. 4 draft position in 2022 despite averaging 13:32 of ice time per game. Wright is at 12 goals, 19 helpers, 56 shots on net, 41 hits, 39 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 54 appearances this season.

Adds assist in loss Wright produced an assist and added two hits in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact Head coach Dan Bylsma continues to tinker with his lines, and that resulted in Wright playing alongside Jared McCann and Yanni Groude. The trio combined on McCann's first-period tally. It's a good spot for Wright, who has taken strides in recent weeks and will now get to play alongside a strong scorer and a steady defensive forward until the next shuffle. Wright has three goals and six assists through 11 games in December, and he's at a total of 16 points (six on the power play), 32 shots on net, 23 blocked shots, 22 hits and a minus-1 rating through 33 appearances.

Since being scratched for three games in a row between Nov. 17 and Nov. 23, Wright has turned things around with five goals and seven total points in his last seven appearances.

Strikes on power play Thursday Wright scored a power-play goal on two shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Islanders.

Impact Wright has accumulated four goals and two assists over six contests since he spent three games as a healthy scratch. The 20-year-old has filled a third-line role over that warm stretch, but he's also on the second power-play unit.

Three-game, five-point streak Wright scored twice Friday in an 8-5 loss to the Sharks.

Impact Wright is riding a three-game, five-point scoring streak that includes three goals and seven shots. The Kraken has done a good job letting this talented pivot's development stew in the AHL and now in the NHL. But Wright is stuck on a Kraken team that hasn't taken the step forward that was perhaps expected. His redraft value is low, but he remains a solid keeper option. In the immediate future, we want Wright to start wiring the puck a bit more. He has just 19 shots in 21 games this season.

Pockets helper Wednesday Wright logged an assist and three shots on goal in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Ducks.

Impact Wright has three points over two contests since he returned from a three-game stint as a healthy scratch. It's a positive sign he's learned from his time out of the lineup, but the 20-year-old will need to sustain his offense over a longer stretch to be trusted in redraft formats. For the season, he has five points, 16 shots on net, nine hits, 11 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 20 appearances.

Checks back in, earns two points Wright scored a goal, dished an assist, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Monday's 3-2 win over the Ducks.

Impact Wright had been scratched for the previous three games amid a 13-game drought. He clearly got the message, scoring the opening goal at 7:12 of the first period before setting up Brandon Montour's game-winning tally in the third. Wright's two ventures onto the scoresheet have been multi-point efforts -- he has two goals, two assists, 13 shots on net, 11 blocked shots, six PIM and a plus-2 rating over 19 appearances this season. The 20-year-old is likely to be limited to bottom-six minutes until he can provide more consistency on offense.

Loses lineup spot Wright was scratched for a third straight game Saturday in a 2-1 loss to the Kings.

Impact The Kraken rotated Wright out of the lineup Nov. 17 versus the Rangers. They've lost two of the three games he's sat out, scoring just four goals in that span, so it's possible he gets a look again soon. Prior to the scratches, he had gone 13 games without a point. He has just two points over 18 appearances this season -- dynasty managers will want to weather the storm, but Wright is not an option in redraft leagues at this time. If he can't up his game soon, he may be ticketed for a trip to AHL Coachella Valley.
