Jared Wright
Los Angeles Kings Right Wing
A rookie sixth-round pick with 23 games, no goals, and an entirely open question in front of him.

Last Season
No goals and four assists in 23 games, on eleven and a half minutes a night, with 32 shots on goal. Even on the plus-minus. That is his entire NHL record.
The Finesse Game
Thirty-two shots in 23 games is a genuinely encouraging rate for a rookie in a bottom-six role — it says a player who gets to shooting positions rather than one hiding on the perimeter. None of them went in, which at this sample size means very little either way.
There is not enough evidence to say much more. He moves well, he was trusted with eleven minutes a night as a twenty-three-year-old, and the club kept dressing him.
The Physical Game
Six-one and 178, which is light for the league and the most obvious thing standing between him and a permanent job. He is willing on the forecheck without being able to finish checks that stop anybody.
The Intangibles
A sixth-round pick who made the NHL at all, which most sixth-round picks do not. The organisation gave him a real look rather than a two-game cup of coffee, and that is worth something.
Everything about him is still to be determined. Ask again in a hundred games.
