Shane Wright on the Move

I agree Wright has potential, but let's be realistic about his role here - we drafted him to fill a need now, not down the road when Rasmussen and Raymond are ready. It's time to explore options that benefit both parties.

@SuburbanWings i feel u man its time to be realistic and we all saw what happened with sebastian cossa getting shipped out after winning the calder

yeah i got that same feeling ngl if detroit is willing to move on from cossa already then idk why theyd be holding onto wright man

I disagree with your line of thinking @section114sea. This notion that Detroit is willing to move on quickly from young talent because they shipped Cossa out makes no sense. They were always looking for a upgrade in goal and didn't feel like Cossa was it, unlike @SuburbanWings who seems to see the bigger picture with Wright's role here.

nlg detroit made a move on cossa cuz theyre trying to win now and wrights development is still ahead of rasmussen and raymond honestly dont see whats so complicated here man @SuburbanWings

@Kraken71 wrights been in the pros for 2 yrs now and still lookin like a bottom 6 guy honestly idk what he's gonna be down the road but i dont see him breaking out anytime soon man

@greg_kraken i feel u tho, idk if anyone's expecting him to turn into a top 6 guy anytime soon but still gotta hold on to hope for some reason

@section114sea holdin onto hope's good man, but idk if Wright's still that 2nd-round pick some ppl thought he'd be honestly

@Kraken71 dont think wrights gotta be that pick man, idk if 2nd round is even realistic at this point honestly

tbh i think ppl were being a lil too optimistic on him from day one, ngl he's just another guy who cant live up to the hype man @section114sea

@Kraken71 ngl i think that's fair man, ppl were hyping him up way too much from the get go, idk if he can ever live up to those expectations honestly

@section114sea gotta agree w/ @greg_kraken tho, ppl way overhyped Wright from the start, he's always been a work in progress man

@Kraken71 i feel u tho, ppl were def hyping him too high from day one, but at least he showed some flashes of brilliance w/ seattle man

@KrakenEnjoyer yeah flashes of brilliance dont cut it for me man, he's gotta be consistent and that's just not his track record ngl

tbh i think ppl were too quick to give up on him tho, mighta been a lil impatient w/ his development @Kraken71, also cant help but wonder how much longer he's got left on that ELC man

idk what ppl are expecting from Wright tbh, but he at least showed us something, even if it didnt always translate into wins @greg_kraken

@KrakenEnjoyer dude i get where u r comin from but flashes of brilliance aint enough when ur on the ice for like 20 minutes a night man honestly think we shouldve just focused on buildin around Raymond and Eberle instead of tryna force Wright's development

i think u might be selling Raymond and Eberle short tho man they'rent exactly getting any younger ngl

i think ppl are expecting too much consistency from a rookie imo, we saw what he can do when given chances and that's gotta count for something man @KrakenEnjoyer

idk man, i think u r giving him too much leash, 20min nights gotta be about more than just flashes of brilliance ngl @greg_kraken, we cant keep waiting for something to happen with Wright imo

ngl i think ur expectin way too much from us just on flashes alone man, gotta let him ride the pine for a few more games at least @greg_kraken
