For the San Jose Sharks, it's February 11th. Here's what's happening. Make sure you're subscribed so you never miss an update.
Macklin Celebrini stands out as the most vital player on the San Jose Sharks this NHL season. The young star has racked up 81 points, 42 more than teammate Will Smith in second place with 39.
That massive gap makes Celebrini the clear engine driving the Sharks' offense. To put it in perspective, his lead is the biggest between first and second on any team. Colorado's Nathan McKinnon holds a 31-point edge over his closest teammate, while Tampa Bay's Nikita Kukarov matches that differential with his top score. No surprise, then, that every opponent builds their game plan around stopping Celebrini. He's become the number one target for defenses league-wide. Celebrini has stepped up big time to handle the pressure. He's bigger, stronger, faster, and more experienced than last year, as Florida Panthers coach Paul Maurice put it back in November. Meanwhile, the Sharks coaching staff has smartly positioned him for success.
