Sharks' Rookie Macklin Celebrini Placed on Injured Reserve

Celebrini, the top pick in the 2024 NHL Draft, will miss at least a week due to a lower-body injury after an impressive debut.

Macklin Celebrini, the 18-year-old rookie, made NHL history by recording two points in the first period of his debut game.
Celebrini's lower-body injury, which also affected his preseason, has led to his placement on injured reserve, sidelining him for a minimum of seven days.
The San Jose Sharks have recalled defenseman Jack Thompson from their AHL affiliate to fill Celebrini's roster spot.
Celebrini scored the Sharks' first goal of the season and assisted another in the team's overtime loss to the St. Louis Blues.
The earliest Celebrini can return to play is October 19, missing games against the Anaheim Ducks, Dallas Stars, and Chicago Blackhawks.
