At 19, Macklin Celebrini is already near the top of NHL scoring and drawing Hart and Art Ross buzz on a rebuilding Sharks team and we need to have a conversation about him…

Bedsy better – Macklin's washed lowkey
This guy has done nothing but exceed expectations his whole hockey career.
He reminds me so much of Sid when his first couple of years.
Now watch him have a down year and have everyone call him a bust😂
The VHL seems pretty cool
I like when guys live up to the hype. He's no Yakupov.
MacKinnon and Bedard or Crosby and Celebrini?
Hart, NOWWWWW
“I used to skip school to watch Macklin Celebrini play hockey”
– Wayne Gretzky
baby goat
Need to get Misa online then the scoring can spread out a bit. Get musty and Igor up now we actually have two scoring lines
This kid is the Real Deal. As someone said, “I’m just happy to be alive at the same time as Macklin Celebrini.”
We also have to have a conversation about Quinn Hughes getting traded to the Wild. Absolutely bonkers.
Honestly Bedard going a year before helped him. He can handle the stress but not having the same pressure as Bedard is nice
by NCAA stat, Mc Celebrini is better than Mckenna?
I really hope he comes to Vancouver with his brother
Nitpicking, but Kaprizov did it as a 23 year old, not a teenager.
That Quinn Hughes trade was crazy man!
thanks for the post!
Macklin is a superstar!!
Join VHL, it's awesome! Also, go Sharks!!!
Great vid well done. The level of cuts here is documentary level. If you are wondering if you should keep doing what you are. Please we need this in the hockey community. If you want some extra juice and you deserve it… Add the name of another sports star around. The Mahomes of the of league or the shohei moment . Love your content, keep it up.

He is also the youngest person to ever win the Hobey Baker
He’s incredible and no doubt a superstar but there’s good reason we’ve known who Connor Bedard was since he was 13 in the States people just gotta put down the phones, keyboards whatever and let things develop but it’s obvious who is the next face of the NHL through the commercials they put out to the generational stuff they did with Connor & Sid we know who it is I guess folks will have to just wake up eventually
People like to forget history too I swear bc the kid was the youngest player to be selected for his national team was declared exceptional status for the CHL & dominated everywhere looking like the best player whenever he’s on the ice & he took over the Hawks day 1 receiving defensive attention that most players will never get his rookie year and has flourished he’s the Hawks literal entire offense who also got Philip Kurashev 50 pts but I hear Sharks fans complain he’s awful all the time yeah he is but that should tell you Bedard is a great playmaker with the puck
The slap shot upon entry into the zone is primarily phased out today with less spacing and yet this kid is scoring goals primarily the way you might think Wayne Gretzky would in this day & age entering the zone and ripping it in tight quarters bar down There’s a player that comes to mind when I hear he’s not a good defender, which he’s been much better at than he’s always been credited and that player is Erik Karlsson who’s best defense was basically his dominance with the puck much like Gretzky’s who was not a defensive player by any means but had the puck on his stick keeping his opposition without it that’s exactly how Bedard plays the game he plays keep away & uses his incredible ice vision to slow the entire game down much like Patrick Kane could too
If San Jose makes the playoffs, a Hart trophy nomination for sure.
kaprisov wasn't a teen when he had those points…dude is 28
The thumbnail was so funny to me, the nhl has some of the most useless stats they pull out.
Dude you act like Macklin is the only noteworthy player on the team. Will Smith? 29 points in 32 games. Will Eklund? Tyler Toffoli? Sam Dickinson? Michael Misa? Alex Wennberg is criminally underrated. Askarov had an elite month in November. Clearly you only watch Celebrini highlights and have never watched a sharks game in your life.
macklin was 3rd in ncaa scoring in 2023-24 cutter gautier was 2nd
