The 206 Sports Collective is back, and it took a trade to make it happen. On Sunday, the Seattle Kraken traded Shane Wright to the Nashville Predators for Matthew Wood. Erica L. Ayala, back on the Kraken beat, is joined by Nashville Predators beat writer and Second Intermission podcast host Ann Kimmel, who was at Wright's first practice in Nashville on Monday.
In this episode:
• How Wright looked at his first Preds practice, skating with Filip Forsberg and Nils Höglander
• Wright's response to reports that his camp requested the trade
• Why Preds GM Chris McFarland wanted a natural center, and why he says "we haven't seen his ceiling yet"
• What Kraken fans should expect from Matthew Wood, and why his 1 goal and 3 points in 14 games don't tell the whole story
• Is there a winner in this one-for-one swap of young forwards?
