Prospect Info: 2024 Draft (1/1): Macklin Celebrini (C) | Boston University (NCAA)

[Munnyro]

BPA here on our but that's just a coin flip

We are well into the wild card tier right?

 

[The Nemesis]

B+ pick

Pronman said so.

 

[sjsharks92]

And with that, the 23/24 season was a roaring success.

Aka a B+.

 

[DG93]

Aka a B+.

At least it's not a D+ Lmfao

Since Winnipeg didn’t get a first for McGroarty, maybe that first pick tomorrow could be a great piece because of the talent still available.

To be fair, they could trade McG for a 2025 pick. I've been suggesting that Big Money Mike offer up, in a worst case scenario, the 2025 2nd for McG. (best case imho is 53 + 85 tomorrow).

I’m feeling that after today, Grier should make this happen. This kid is only 20 and near NHL ready. We can really use that.
I really hope he comes here.

There's even a case to be made to trade the VGK 2025 1st. The case being that you are trading an unknown for the known. Whoever you draft with VGK 1st could be a bust. But if your own scouts think McG is NHL ready now and good, it makes sense to pull the trigger.

[Tw1ster]

Has anyone asked him if he’s going pro yet? I
Imagine if someone asked him, he’d probably tell them right?

 

[LadyStanley]

Yes. Undecided. Needs to have conversation with Sharks brass, family.

BayFC sent congrats message too, but it's an IG story

 

[Star Platinum]

Nice beat

Just realized who Macklin's doppelganger is

I love it when a plan comes together

 

[Shark Finn]

I absolutely hate all the questions and references regarding the Canucks directed towards Celebrini. He's a Shark. A very, very tough pill to swallow, but accept it, media.

Plus side, it's the last day you're ever going to hear those questions

I wouldn't count on it.

But yeah, during the draft, asking who's Macklin's favorite current Canuck... Jeez.

He's a pro now. All the questions going forward are going to be about him coming to the Sharks because that's what he's doing and how everything in the present is going.

 

[PacificOceanPotion]

I kinda feel like from his standpoint, he was a fan, but when you get drafted to a team, I’m willing to bet that all of your focus is on your job and winning for the organization that believes in you. I gotta say, he seems like the kinda dude that takes loyalty seriously and takes winning seriously. I wouldn’t worry about the canucks thing. He’s a Bay boy now he’s gotta know he’s loved and adored literally all around the Bay Area. He’s instantly a star athlete in the Bay Area and that’s a big deal.

[Jargon]

Is this guy any good? Can he play RD?

Apparently he did briefly play D during a tournament when he was like 11 or 12. So probably!

He was never going to win whatever he says in my eyes.

Q: Who do you model your game on, Macklin?

A: Kesler (Booooo!)

A: Oh wait wait, I actually love Crosby (ughh boooo Crosby I hate that guy after the Stanley Cup)

A: No wait, I model my game after Tomas Hertl (he's dead to me...)

The winning response:

A: Mike Grier.
