Earlier today, the Kraken confirmed the hiring of Dan Bylsma as the team’s head coach.
As a rookie, Wright threw a tantrum at the coaching staff of the Kraken’s club school (of which Bylsma was a member) after receiving instructions during a training session.
Last night, in his first (prep) NHL game, he didn’t play like a guy who gives himself the right to cry → https://t.co/i1irEp5Mzz

Right now, Bylsma is the big club’s new coach… And you have to wonder if that makes Shane Wright, who hasn’t had the right attitude all the time since turning pro, happy.
But whether it makes Wright happy or not, Dan Bylsma has proven he deserves the job because he’s doing great things with the Coachella Valley Firebirds.
He took the team to the finals last year… And at the time of writing, the Firebirds are trying to secure their ticket back to the grand final.
But speaking of the Kraken…
It’s interesting to note that Jessica Campbell will be considered for the new coaching staff in Seattle.
This would be the first time we’ve seen a woman as an assistant coach in the NHL :
New #SeaKraken head coach Dan Bylsma tells reporters in Seattle that Jessica Campbell will be considered for a job on his coaching staff.
There’s never been a full-time female assistant coach in the NHL before.

Somewhat obvious after the #GoBolts acquired Ryan McDonagh, but I’ve confirmed TB will not be bringing RD Matt Dumba back. He will hit the UFA market July 1.
