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

Kraken's Shane Wright: Loses lineup spot
Shane Wright was scratched for a third straight game Saturday in a 2-1 loss to the Kings.The Seattle Kraken rotated Wright out of the lineup Nov. 17 versus the Rangers. Seattle has 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, Wright 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.

Wright is at two points, six shots on net, three hits and a plus-4 rating over five appearances while averaging 14:16 of ice time per game.
