What Secrets Make Sharks’ Macklin Celebrini Hockey’s Most Electrifying New Prodigy?
As the hype builds for Celebrini, the league is catching up to a reality that was apparent to those in San Jose as soon as he arrived.
Franchise legend Joe Thornton took the stage in Las Vegas to announce Celebrini as the No. 1 pick at the 2024 NHL Draft and has since taken him in as a house guest, watching these early days of his career from a front-row seat.
“Oh f—, he’s just good,” said Thornton, a recent inductee to the Hockey Hall of Fame. “He’s that good. He’s just so competitive. He’s just strong. He’s motivated. He’s just got everything. I’ll be honest with you. He’s a full 200-foot player.”
