SEATTLE — With the Seattle Kraken out of playoff contention, the final stretch means a focus on young players that could be contributors in the future.
That means a lot of attention on Shane Wright, and so far he’s thriving with it.
Wright scored 68 seconds into the first period for his fourth goal in four games since being called up from the AHL, Philipp Grubauer made 39 saves for his second shutout of the season, and the Seattle Kraken beat the Arizona Coyotes 5-0 on Tuesday night.
André Burakovsky, Justin Schultz, Brandon Tanev and Will Borgen also scored as the Kraken won for the fifth time in seven games.
