It's April 2nd. This is San Jose Sharks News Today, AI-powered updates on your team. I'm Corey with the story. San Jose Sharks were in a deep funk just a week ago, dropping six straight games, including that heartbreaking overtime loss to the St. Louis Blues on March 26th. It looked like their Western Conference playoff hopes were toast. But now they flipped the script with three straight come-from-behind wins, each sealed by a game-winner in the final 90 seconds of regulation.
What sparked the San Jose Sharks' unprecedented comeback?
That's a first in NHL history. The latest thriller was a 4-3 victory over the Anaheim Ducks, where Macklin Celebrini tied it with 99 seconds left and Alexander. Wimberg scored the decider moments later. The 19-year-old Celebrini is on fire, crossing the 100-point mark on Monday with two goals and an assist in a 5-4 win over the Blues.
After just two points in that losing skid, he's racked up nine in these three victories, touching all four goals against the Ducks.
Teammates like 16-year NHL vet Ryan Reeves are straight-up amazed, calling Celebrini a budding superstar who's lighting a fire under everyone. The whole squad's showing real grit, never quitting even when down late. These wins have the Sharks one point out of a wild-card spot, with games in hand on most rivals. It's proof of their belief in each other, taking it game by game with that unbreakable drive pushing them forward.
