Celebrini (lower body) left Tuesday's preseason game and did not return.

Celebrini crashed hard into the boards on Tuesday during San Jose's preseason clash vs. Utah and did not return due to a lower-body injury. If the 18-year-old is forced to delay his NHL regular season debut it will be a massive letdown after Celebrini was taken 1st overall in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft and is considered one of the league's most exciting prospects. San Jose is expected to provide updates on the injury in the upcoming days.

San Jose has signed Macklin Celebrini to a three-year, entry-level contract.

Celebrini was the No.1 overall pick in this summer's NHL Draft after posting 32 goals and 32 assists (64 points) in 38 games at Boston University. The 18-year-old appears set to turn pro and join the Sharks after signing his entry-level deal after speculation he may return to college. The 18-year-old was only the fourth freshman in NCAA history to win the Hobey Baker Award as college hockey’s top player.
