Macklin Celebrini Nursing A Lower-Body Injury
2 months agoSan Jose Sharks center Macklin Celebrini is being evaluated for a lower-body injury. The top pick of this year's draft battled a lower-body injury during preseason but was able to make his NHL debut on Thursday night against St. Louis. Celebrini tallied a goal and assist while logging 17:35 of ice time. However, he missed practice on Friday and is now doubtful for Saturday's clash versus Anaheim. Mikael Granlund took over the first-line center spot in Friday's practice and could remain in the role for Saturday's game. Granlund would have extra fantasy value as a top-line center. He led the Sharks in scoring last season and kicked off the 2024-25 campaign with a power-play assist in Thursday's 5-4 overtime loss.
