NHL: San Jose Sharks will have a long way to go with or without a player like Macklin Celebrini
Macklin Celebrini #71 of the Boston University Terriers looks on against the Denver Pioneers in the second period during the NCAA Men’s Hockey Frozen Four semifinal game at Xcel Energy Center on April 11, 2024 in St Paul, Minnesota. SAN JOSE – Winning this week’s NHL Draft Lottery and selecting Boston University center Macklin Celebrini first overall in June will not cure all that ails the San Jose Sharks.
So if the Sharks’ numbers do come up, then what? After Sharks general manager Mike Grier and other members of the team’s front office stand on stage inside the Las Vegas Sphere next month and select Celebrini with the No. 1 overall pick, what’s the next step? The Sharks have said they hope to do that this summer as some roster spots become available after a season in which they finished 19-54-9 for an NHL-worst 47 points.
“So, hopefully, whether that’s through free agency or through trades, we’ll be allowed to add some guys that fit that profile.” After Chicago won last year’s draft lottery, and right before the NHL draft in Nashville, where they selected Connor Bedard first overall, the Blackhawks supported the wunderkind center by acquiring Taylor Hall and Nick Foligno from the Boston Bruins.
