100 Points in His Second Season
When the Sharks faced off against the St. Louis Blues last night, Macklin Celebrini was sitting at 98 points on the season - 36 goals and 62 assists - in just 71 games. Nobody would deny that Celebrini has solidified himself as one of the league's best centers.
In yesterday's game Macklin scored two goals, one of which being scored on the power play, and added a power play assist, to bring his season total up to 101 points in 72 games.
What this kid had done this season has been unreal. He's still a teenager! It's a shame that it looks as though San Jose will miss out on the playoffs, because he would likely take home the Hart if they made it in. He has truly been carrying this Sharks team on his shoulders since last season.
Even if the Sharks miss out on the postseason this year, I'm excited to see what the team can do in the 2026-2027 season. I wouldn't be surprised to see Celebrini take this team on a playoff run. But for now, let's just hope for the best in the remainder of the current season.
The Sharks rarely make sports radio anymore... but yesterday the guys were talking about Macklin and the Sharks playoff chances. One had hope they'd make it in, the other two didn't think it would happen. Go Sharks!
