The 19-year-old and first overall pick in the 2024 NHL draft has 23 points (nine goals, 14 assists), one more than Chicago Blackhawks center Connor Bedard, who had one goal and three assists on Friday. Celebrini tied Steve Yzerman (23 in 1984-85) and Wayne Gretzky (23 in 1980-81) for the most points by a teenager in NHL history through his first 15 games of a season.
“We see it every night. We see it daily. What I like [is]”That’s how you start winning cultures. He’s done a great job of that. Proud of him. He’s one of the greatest kids and human beings. He cares. He’s a great person. We’re very lucky.”
Will Smith made it 2-1 at 15:39 of the third period. Philipp Kurashev passed the puck to Smith up front, and after Celebrini was stopped in close, the puck ended up behind Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck for Smith to tap in.
Alex Nedeljkovic made 31 saves for the Sharks (6-6-3), who are 5-1-1 in their last seven games.
“It was kind of an extended shift. We had a nice entrance, and then [Kurashev] I had a great forecheck,” Smith said. “I saw [Celebrini] out of the corner of my eye. Honestly, I thought he had scored, then I saw the puck that was there. »
