San Jose Sharks, behind Celebrini, gaining confidence after tough start
"Macklin Celebrini assisted on Will Smith's big second-period goal and now has five goals and seven assists in a career-long six-game point streak, as the Sharks won for the third time in five games following a 0-4-2 start. The Sharks' win was their first on home ice this season. Just compete and just play, Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky said. Get to our game."
"Celebrini now had 17 points in 11 games, becoming just the fifth teenager in the past 15 years to record 17 or more points in a single calendar month. The others were Connor McDavid in February and November 2016, Clayton Keller in March 2018, Andrei Svechnikov in November 2019, and Connor Bedard in March 2024. Celebrini and the Sharks will be severely tested in the next few days with games against the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday, the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday, and the Seattle Kraken next Wednesday."
San Jose earned a 5-2 victory over New Jersey at SAP Center. Alexander Wennberg and Philipp Kurashev each recorded a goal and an assist. Goalie Alex Nedeljkovic made 29 saves, marking his best performance of the season. Macklin Celebrini assisted on Will Smith's second-period goal and extended a career-long six-game point streak to five goals and seven assists. The win was San Jose's first at home and their third in five games after a 0-4-2 start. Celebrini reached 17 points in 11 games, becoming the fifth teenager in 15 years with 17+ points in a calendar month. The Sharks face strong opponents in their next three games.
