data-pos=\"5\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Which teams are interested in Shane Wright?<br \/><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Ever since the 22 year old center Shane Wright requested a trade from the Seattle Kraken, a number of teams have been linked to him.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"8\"\/>As per NHL insiders, the Montreal Canadiens, the Boston Bruins and the Philadelphia Flyers could be good fits for him.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>What are insiders saying about the rumors?<br \/><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>A few hours ago, Lyle Richardson of Bleacher Report noted, \u2018For the past two seasons, the Boston Bruins have had an issue with the calibre of depth among their centers. <!-- -->Shane Wright could potentially help them address that issue for the long term. Wright&#8217;s youth and potential as a two-way center could make him a good fit on their second line, allowing Minten more time to develop his game. They could also try him on their first line to see if he&#8217;ll have any chemistry with wingers David Pastrnak and the recently acquired JJ Peterka.<!-- --> As for a return, the Bruins are reportedly willing to move puck-moving defenseman Mason Lohrei if they want a promising NHL player in return. He could be included with a draft pick or prospect.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"19\"\/>Lyle Richardson of Bleacher Report added, \u201cOn June 24, Dave Pagnotta of The Fourth Period claimed the Flyers were among the clubs poking around on Wright. He lacks the superstar potential that Carlsson would&#8217;ve brought to the Flyers. However, his two-way skills and potential could make him a good fit in Philadelphia. Given a similar chance, Wright might become a better option to fill their second-line center role than Zegras, who seems better suited to the wing.<!-- --> He could improve to the point where he&#8217;d be good enough to take over the first-line role.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"24\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Contract details and salary cap implications<br \/><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>The Seattle Kraken\u2019s center Shane Wright is entering the final year of his contract with the team and as per reports, his current salary cap hit is estimated to be $866,666.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"27\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>How will the trade impact the teams?<br \/><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>For the Boston Bruins, the team has $5.3 million in effective cap space so trading for Shane Wright remains affordable. Adding him instantly provides cheap center depth and an elite offensive weapon to play alongside David Pastrnak.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"30\"\/>For the Philadelphia Flyers, Shane Wright remains affordable as he becomes a much-needed, highly affordable long-term option.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"32\"\/><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/nhl\/news\/nhl-trade-rumor-boston-bruins-and-philadelphia-flyers-emerge-as-landing-spots-for-2-6m-seattle-krakens-star\/articleshow\/132376493.cms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Seattle Kraken\u2019s star player Shane Wright ended the last season with 12 goals and 27 points in 74 games, sparking concern about him.
