He attacks the middle, then shifts his weight, pushes off, and attacks the outside with a series of powerful crossovers. When Wright puts everything together, he drives wide, gears down to manipulate the defender, then turns on the jets and finds a teammate in the slot. Other impressive sequences show more deception, like firing a look-off shot or faking a pass to the middle-lane driver before hitting the trailer. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
