"Going by what's happened over the last few weeks, few have matched that description better than the 19-year-old Celebrini. Celebrini had three points Wednesday, including an eye-popping game-tying goal with 1:07 left in regulation time and a dazzling play to set up William Eklund for the overtime winner as the Sharks earned a stunning 4-3 win over the Los Angeles Kings at Crypto.com Arena."
"Celebrini now has 24 points in a 12-game point streak - tied for the third longest in team history - in which the Sharks have gone 8-4-0 and moved into the top wild card spot in the Western Conference. With 67 points, Celebrini has factored into half of the Sharks' 134 goals this season. He's also played a role in 11 of the Sharks' 21 game-winning goals, and six of eight overtime goals."
"The 50% total is the second-highest goal share in the NHL behind Connor McDavid, a three-time Hart Trophy winner who, with 75 points, had been in on 51.7% of the 145 goals the Edmonton Oilers had scored before Thursday. But while McDavid has forward Leon Draisaitl, himself a winner of the award in 2020, and Evan Bouchard, one of the NHL's highest-scoring defensemen, backing him up with a combined 99 points before Thursday,"
Macklin Celebrini has become central to the San Jose Sharks' success, producing 67 points and factoring into half of the team's 134 goals. He has a 12-game, 24-point streak during which the Sharks went 8-4-0 and climbed into the top wild-card spot in the Western Conference. Celebrini has been involved in 11 of the Sharks' 21 game-winning goals and six of eight overtime goals. His 50% goal participation rate is the second-highest in the NHL behind Connor McDavid. Celebrini's point total is more than double that of center Alexander Wennberg, the second-highest scoring Sharks player with 30 points.
