Seattle Kraken reportedly ready to trade Shane Wright for one specific player

The Seattle Kraken find themselves in a post-season spot in the Pacific Division right now, and while they've got very few stars on their roster, they're deep and make very few mistakes right now as they've posted a record of 25-19-9 in the process.

If they are to take the next step, this is a team that needs some superstars, and as of late, the speculation surrounding Shane Wright has grown, with the team hoping to deal their top prospect for a proven star.

While there aren't many stars out there that fit the Kraken's timeline, according to a report from Elliotte Friedman, the team would love to move Wright for a player such as Artemi Panarin.

Unfortunately for Seattle, Panarin likely isn't going to accept a deal to Seattle, as it was recently reported that any deal for the 34-year old Rangers star would have to come with an extension attached, as he is looking to land a four-year deal.

On paper, Panarin would give the Kraken the type of elite level production on the wing that could help in a big way, but given that he would need to approve a deal with an extension, it's highly unlikely.

Still, Wright is a potential star of the future, and if the team really are motivated to move the 22-year old in the weeks ahead of the 2026 trade deadline, there's still a big chance that they can land a superstar to lead them back to the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
