It is not uncommon at this time of the year for young eligible players to be loaned by their teams. With both the Kings and the Kraken in good shape in the standings, losing these players to the tournament isn&#8217;t a tough pill to swallow. In fact, it gives them time to develop and add some seasoning to their game. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Examine The Loaned Players <\/span><\/h3>\n<h4 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Shane Wright<\/span><\/h4>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Wright place, Wright time for Shane\u2019s first <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NHL?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@nhl<\/a> goal! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/5d4I2SQ71H\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/5d4I2SQ71H<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Seattle Kraken (@SeattleKraken) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SeattleKraken\/status\/1600338991106359298?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">December 7, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">From being bumped down to fourth overall to a conditioning stint with the <a href=\"https:\/\/theahl.com\/stats\/player\/9588\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Coachella Valley Firebirds<\/a>, Shane Wright has had a tough go. The stint paid off for him as he found the scoreboard (four goals in five games). Upon being recalled from the stint, he scored his first NHL goal against the Montreal Canadiens. This is the perfect position for him as he will get a lot more ice time and be a great addition once he returns. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Brandt Clarke<\/span><\/h4>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Brandt Clarke is one of the top prospects in the pipeline for the Los Angeles Kings. So far he has skated in nine games with the big club and has two assists. Since being with the Ontario Reign, he has had two points in five games. Like Wright, it&#8217;s perfect for him to get ice team and represent his country.
