Even though the 2022 National Hockey League draft is officially behind us, Shane Wright continues to get reactions.
He was not drafted with the first overall pick by the Montreal Canadiens, and that really doesn't seem to do him any good.
It started with this:
It then continued at his post-draft press conference, where he already showed some resentment towards the CH:
And finally, there's something new, there's something worse. Fans have denounced Wright on social media for allegedly "liking" nasty comments made about young Juraj Slafkovsky.
An immature gesture that many denounce and that may explain why three teams ignored him in the draft. In hockey, especially in the NHL and especially for a young player, attitude and character are very, very important.
Here are some examples of the nasty comments that would have been liked by Shane Wright, as reported by my colleague J-B Gagné.
This would include this one:
"(Slafkovsky is) the worst first pick since Yak (Nail Yakupov)."
And a few others, as you can see in the following screenshots:
Note that Wright has since deleted his "likes" on these posts, but that's still pretty immature of him. (if he actually did it and if it was intentional on his part) The screenshots seem to be very clear though.
