r/SanJoseSharks

This guy would be such an insane complement to our top 6. I’m full Stenny at this point unless we can trade down for great value. BPA at 2.

Like the title says Sharks are my Western Conference team (and has been for quite a few years) but have been a lifelong Habs fan Ole Ole Ole....but can't wait to see who the Sharks draft.

I’m sure many if not most of yall are watching celebrini at worlds but for anyone who hasn’t been able to I’ll say what I’m sure everyone already expects.

Celebrini has been one of, if not THE best player at worlds overall. Despite a pretty abysmal outing vs Sweden he has made up for that game in spades. He is tied for first in P/GP with Lucas Raymond and OEL. I can’t find TOI on the IIHF site but I’d be astonished if he wasn’t #1 on team Canada as they have been double and triple shifting him just like our good ol sharks love to do lol.

Especially that game against Denmark. While it was the Crosby show as he got 4 points in the 3rd period. Celebrini was the best player on the ice for almost the entire game. Constantly generating chances and was all over the ice.

Also tbh if Celebrini is always going 100% when he’s playing regular season hockey with us (he is). Then that must mean he’s going 110% anytime he puts on that Canada jersey cus he is fucking flying out there lol.

So I just wanted to let everyone who hasn’t been able to watch know that absolutely nothing has changed and Mack is still for sure the best player on the ice wherever he goes. I have been patiently waiting for the disappointment when he finally slows down and all this hype was just a fluke due to decades of sharks hockey teaching me to never get too hopeful. But this tournament, just like literally every other time I’ve watched him play, is forcing me to accept he’s just a god on ice just like reaves said.

I know the Nemec reports got all but rescinded, and Demidov is young and growing....and that these 2 players are unrelated, but:

Nemec was reached for at 2 by the Devils in 2022 because, as always, RHD were/are in short supply and high demand. Right behind him went Logan Cooley at 3 and Cutter Gauthier at 5. How it's going for these guys-

• Nemec: Distressed asset. Can't break top pair D or the PP1 QB, getting buried on depth chart, been in trade talks for the last year. Rescinded reports or not, the bar for a #2 pick is high - and relative to what went 3 and 5, he's not clearing it
• Cooley: Just signed an $80M (8yr) extension. Currently a high end 2C and will probably become a 1C shortly
• Gauthier: Just had a 40 goal season, and put up 12 points in 12 playoff games

Two years later, Levshunov was reached for at 2 by the Blackhawks in 2024 because, as always, RHD were/are in short supply and high demand. Right behind him went Beckett Sennecke at 3 and Ivan Demidov at 5. I'll exclude Sennecke since that's revisionist history, since he seemed to be a shock pick at 3, but here's how it's going for the other 2 guys:

• Levshunov: According to Hockeystat cards, for this year - he had a percentile 0 defense rating and percentile 1 net rating . His offense is league-average (percentile 44), and the Blackhawks team isn't doing him favors - but XGA of 57.70 against XGF of 38.88 is genuinely bad regardless of team. Still young, still developing, but nothing in these numbers suggests a top pair guy is in there. (I know hockeystat cards is only 1 source, but it matches the narrative on the kid, plus that site really passes the sniff test with other players)
• Demidov: 62 points in 82 games in his rookie year (only played 2 NHL games year prior). Already a strong RW2 on a team that may make the Cup finals this year. Would be RW1 on many teams, but Montreal has a heck of a first line

I know these D men are young, and take time to develop, but their forward counterparts in the same drafts are already contributing to their teams' playoff success. Yes, RHD are scarce and expensive, but that's exactly the problem with reaching for one early. If he doesn't pan out, you've burned a top pick on the asset class everyone is already overpaying for. We supposedly have this unreal overly deep asset pool of forwards; let's use them to buy proven D men rather than gambling on projection. Even if it has to be an overpay, it seems worth it that other teams took the risk and developed them... seems more of the cost of doing the business than a blatant overpay. I'm open to any and all arguments, and I trust Grier - but in drafts where there isn't a Matthew Schaefer, the risk profile on taking the D man is brutal.

I didn’t make this, but was browsing Puckpedia this morning and saw the most reasonable trade and roster construction I’ve seen to date. Looks pretty damn good to me. Thoughts?

This year he played with Celebrini basically the whole year but there were times where he was moved away from Celebrini (but it happened more last year).

A typo google search and I’m literally howling. Hahah!

In the world of perfume, Eustachio Celebrino, a notable citizen of Udine, made a significant impact. In March 1526, he published one of the first authentic treatises on the Art of Perfume Composition in Venice.

Italian Master Perfumer Lorenzo Dante Ferro, inspired by Celebrino's groundbreaking work, has launched a new line of perfumes to "Celebrate Celebrino" and revive the inspiration and writings of this visionary. I CELEBRINI is a collection of original, prestigious, and highly concentrated perfumes, crafted for those who desire bold and distinguished olfactory experiences. These fragrances are designed to be cherished by future generations, guiding them towards a lifestyle of elegance and refinement.
