That's a nice question.
Thank you.
Um, it's disappointing.
I had no way of no way around it.
Um,
We could be sitting here having a totally different conversation if things had gone a little bit differently.
So, yeah, it's hard.
The Edmonton Oilers star sees the San Jose Sharks rookie as a generational talent, especially ahead of their matchup on Thursday.
Celebrini, the number one pick in the 2024 draft, has turned heads in his young career.
The two have faced off three times already, and the Oilers have won every single game.
McDavid holds an 8-1 edge in points over Celebrini in those matchups, which has to motivate the young shark even more.
McDavid praised Celebrini's complete game, saying he battles hard on every shift, something rare for a 19- or 20-year-old.
He noted how quickly Celebrini has grasped what it takes to succeed in the league.
Celebrini has racked up four points in four different games as a teenager, tying Jimmy Carson's record.
Now he's chasing marks set by legends like Dale Howarchuk and Sidney Crosby at that age.
All eyes will be on Thursday's clash.
