• Sharks' Macklin Celebrini: Won't travel with team

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Celebrini (lower body) will not be with the Sharks for their upcoming three-game road trip, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports Monday. Given his placement on injured reserve, Celebrini's absence for this three-game trip shouldn't come as a surprise. It's a tough blow for the 18-year-old center, especially considering how impressive he was in his NHL debut, racking up a goal and an assist versus the Blues. Whenever the 2024 first-overall pick is cleared to play, he should reclaim his spot on the first line and No. 1 power-play unit.

He is considered week-to-week, according to Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now.

  Head coach Ryan Warsofsky said Friday that Celebrini is dealing with a lower-body injury and is still being evaluated, Max Miller of NHL.com reports. Celebrini wasn't on the ice for Friday's practice session, and he's apparently dealing with an injury following his productive showing during Thursday's Opening Night loss to the Blues in which he tallied a goal and an assist in 17:35 of ice time. Warsofsky isn't yet sure whether Celebrini will be available for Saturday's game against the Ducks.

  Celebrini scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in Thursday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Blues. Celebrini's first period of NHL play went about as well as it could. He scored on his first shot, opening the scoring at 7:01 of the first period. Just over 10 minutes later, he set up Tyler Toffoli's goal, securing a multi-point debut for Celebrini. The No. 1 overall pick from 2024 will have every opportunity to put up big numbers as the new centerpiece of the Sharks' offense. Fantasy managers who can stomach a plus-minus rating that's likely to be in the red should not hesitate to deploy Celebrini on a regular basis.
