Celebrini isn't your average First Overall Pick. He works hard in all 3 Zones and gets under the oppositions skin. A true Blue Collar Hockey Player
should fit right at home in Chicago
@Darrakkii that would be 2nd back to back picks from my town north vancouver bc. Chicago is stealing all our talent. Not to mention sexually assaulted North van native kyle beach.
That's a big deal in comparison to the wave of prima donna high picks we now see in the league.
@@Darrakkii bedard macklin line gona go crazy
@@owenposer6720 bedard was also one of if not the strongest player in his draft, he could definitely help Celebrini add some strength
I hope it’s the Sharks. Though it will be interesting to see who rounds out the rest of the top 5 picks.
ottawa, sharks, hawks, ducks, cbj.
It’s the sharks
The Sharks need a generational player to revive the organization. Doug Wilson left this team in the late 90 and early 2000s with the way he and his staff built the team. With the new wave of players coming into the league they need someone to match the caliber of the younger players.
Well they got a good one with Eklund. He’ll be a really good forward for San Jose in the future
There is one thing that stuck out to me more than anything: Good at both ends of the ice. That is a rookie every team should want
Exactly! Many hot shot forward prospects take years to develop that side of their game. Some never do, so to have that quality now is a great asset.
All the chicago fans acting entitled to get celebrini after being gifted Bedard says everything you need to know about how that franchise works 😂
I watched every game of Jonathan Toews NHL career and at his absolute peak from age 20 to 25 (2008 - 2013) He was arguably the best all around player in hockey. Celebrini reminds me of Toews in his draft year. I watched Celebrini play in person with the Chicago steel last year, and he just dominated the US U18 program with 6 first round draft picks on it.
Celebrini is better than Toews was at 17
That is a very bold claim
2nd after Crosby I'd say
Only if San Jose gets first overall pick pick then I will be super excited over Celibrini
They got him 👍
The fact that you’re wearing a sharks jersey as if you knew. Man you’re a legend sir
had the pleasure of watching him play multiple times this season. it's VERY apparent when he's on the ice, even though he's competing against high-caliber talent. he's responsible in his own end and plays well with possession, like a krejci.
Is there a mid season mock draft in THG’s plans?
BU season ticket holder here: Everything Shannon said is spot on. Mack is a creative playmaker with a lethal one-tee when the puck is in his wheelhouse. He's very responsible in his own zone seeing some PK time and is unafraid to block shots. His faceoffs are okay and will probably improve with added strength. Also, The San Jose tie is even stronger with BU alum Mike Grier as GM.
As for the other guys mentioned - Aiden looks solid and is developing well BU is overloaded with right-shot D so sometimes he has to play his off side. There's an occasional hiccup but fore the most part he seems unbothered. Graf does have a higher PPG but he plays in the ECAC which is a weaker conference than Hockey East. BU's strength of schedule is currently ranked 2nd in the country. Quinnipiac's is 15th.
Seen this kid live. Such a talented player has a impact everywhere
sharks jersey aged well!
Not to bad back to back 1 picks coming from Vancouver
He may go back to BU as an 18 year old to win the NCAA title, but if he wins this year he is NHL bound.
Celebrini, Smith, AND Graf all SJ Sharks now is crazy 😂 The future is looking good in SJ.
Reminds me of the landeskog scouting report from way back in the day
American here. I couldn't watch the actual World Jr. Games, but I saw extended highlights and I was very impressed with Celibrini. He seemed to be driving the play for Canada all the time. He'd be my choice for #1, for sure. I heard an announcer who asked a scout what Celebrini's ceiling was, and the scout thought Brayden Point. Not bad, I guess (lol). I'm thinking maybe Patrice Bergeron. I'd like either version for my team.
Hope he goes to San Jose
Best.team.for.macklin.celebrini.blackhawks.
And we got Graf on SJ. Bright future
Former Junior Shark!
The Sharks would look significantly different as soon as next year if they are able to draft Celebrini. With him, possibly Will Smith and Quentin Musty joining, the future will be sooner than later.
Alternate title: “How excited should the Blackhawks be about Celebrini?”
I swear, if they win the lottery again…
@@MagicalBreadas a hawks fan I’d feel shitty, San Jose needs a break
@@MagicalBreadi need the stats on how many years taylor halls team has been in the lottery for the top pick and hasnt won it, bc it seems majority of the time he wins
@@Hikarii349Are you watching the games? I wouldn’t feel shitty. CHI is awful and just as likely as the Sharks to have the worst record and best odds at Cellebrini.
@@MisterCaution I mean in the fact if the hawks miraculously were to get the first pick again I’d feel shitty sure it’d be cool to get it twice in a row but San Jose is struggle bussin
Holiday ODR’s closed in the Bay Area last night. Back to sharks ice and local rinks lol
Cayden Lindstrom next pls
As a Sharks fan, I hope it is San Jose. I am good with Anaheim getting him if the Sharks do not.
I also hope that Chicago does enough in the second half that they are not in the running for first overall. If they get the #1 pick two years in a row, I am sure the uproar would be deafening.
How much better is Bedard than Celebrini? Is it close or is it not close? They both are young…Too early to tell?
Great video, Shannon! You should coach the Sharks.
Pretty exciting times if you are a sharks fan and you are getting this guy to pair up with will smith.
Go sharks!!!!!
I hope Smith comes along also.
two consecutive 1st overall picks are from the same city? Berdard and Celebrini are both from North Van!
And both played at north shore winter club.
We should be extremely hyped. He’s essentially an elite RNH who plays like MacKinnon (without the freight train body). He’s much better than Toews offensively in the NCAA at the same age. To me, he’s in the Eichel/Fantilli hype range.
Eichel sucks so we shouldn’t be hyped is what you’re saying?
@@owenposer6720 he's playing at better than a PPG this season, and he's a big reason why Vegas won the Cup.
@@name-vi6fs Blud stinks 💀
@@owenposer6720username checks out
Eichel has 1 cup how many has McDavid have?@@owenposer6720
He's got that completeness that Crosby has. Obviously not quite the same talent level, but he will definitely be very handy for the team that lands him.
Numbers he's putting up in NCAA at 17 are extraordinary. He's close to Bedard level if not even
Im scared that hes gonna have a Jack Hughes kinda season. WJC sure he looked aight but his numbers werent great. I think he could have a hard time translating like Mackinnon or Hughes in year 1. Still will be a stud but you know what i mean.
Kinda see a pettersson in him would look good in the blue and white 🍁
I’m a CBJ fan and would love to get the pick. But my excitement to get the pick would be less than loathing if Chicago gets the pick.
Hey HG,
Welllll....I'm just a little late in viewing this video so excuse me. hahaha As of now the miracle Sharks fans were praying for has happened and we have the number one over all pick this year for the first time in franchise history. I can tell you as you well know we are absolutely over the moon and while weird things happen on draft day everyone expects us to pick Celebrini and I can't imagine a scenario where the Sharks would trade away number 1 can you? I mean if you're San Jose the only way I would give up that pick is if somebody were to offer me a top prospect projected to be a top 6 forward or top pairing defenseman AND another number 1 and at least a couple of other high picks (a 3nd and a 2nd or another 1st?).
If the Sharks did this type of trade it is likely that Mike Grier would lose his job for denying the Sharks fans Celebrini. I understand that would be a huge let down but, if the right trade were offered would you consider it? I don't know if I could pull that trigger if it were my call.
Thanks for another great video HG.
Cheers,
Peter St. John

It's Bedards NHL now. We'll see.
190 pounds at 17 "he needs to add weight"
Right?? The kid is already built solid.
I wonder how he'll play with Bedard.
Those will be fun all star games! I am interested to see them face off of one another SJS vs CHI will be more fun with Celebrini vs Bedard! That’s better for hockey
A perfect Toews to Bedard’s Kane (I’m sorry)
first off, we are over the moon with Fantilli in Columbus. but we would gladly take Celebrini also.
I feel like Anaheim will have enough trouble signing all of these top level toung guys in 2-3 years... san jose does really seem like the natural fit
Eklund is our Nylander, Smith is our Marner, Celebrini will be our Tavares, and McKenna will be our Matthews
Wishful thinking. Still have to get Celebrini and McKenna
Celebrini is the next Bedard.
No
Who knows?! Shane Wright was the consensus until late in the day.
Shane Wright had an underwhelming DY and remained at 1 most of the year because of exposure bias
Celebrini is having a better DY in a tougher league.
Agree about the exposure bias with Shane Wright. The same could be said with Lafreniére, Patrick and others. I honestly haven't seen enough of Celebrini to comment on him.
I'm just sceptical of hype in a year where there isn't an other-worldly player on offer.
@@cdfmmccEiserman has fallen off, and he was the consensus 2nd before.
Please be a Shark. We really need this and I worry about how far this will set us back not getting #1.
Chicago LETSGO
thank you for the cm and kg! 😄
This kid is the real deal.
Personally I don’t want to compete against him in the pacific and Chicago speaks for itself. Go Jackets!
He'd be a great linemate with Bedard 😏
Obviously, the best team would be the Habs!! Just after having traded for Zegras!
Yes, Indo live in a parallel universe 😂
He's going to be better than Connor Bedard and McDavid!
future ottawa senator
You know he would pull a cutter and not sign with them
@@itaintobeezyharsh but fair
@@cdfmmcc I think it’s kinda messed up too that players can do that
He’s a really hard worker with loads of talent. He reminds me of Saku Koivu almost, with an elite shot.
sens are gonna be so bad this year we are going to get him. sigh
He knew…
If the Hawks get him, fans of other teams will be shitting little green apples.
Hey he was already on The Chicago Steel. Already knows the area somewhat. Welcome to The Blackhawks lol
The fact that hes not known as a bonafied #1 means a right shot d will be #1
About as hyped as Shane Wright should have been. Yall talked about him like gospel. Like he's good, but hes not build a whole team around top 10 in the league guy. And we need to stop treating #1 picks that way.
He is 1,000,000x better than Wright.

Celebrini isn’t a generational talent like Bedard. So let’s just get that out of the way. He definitely still has a ton of potential though.
I’m thinking like 75-85 point potential with a solid two-way game. Thus, he has franchise number one centerman potential for sure.
Don’t think he’ll ever be a superstar like top 20 player in the league where he’s putting up 100+ points a season. Definitely not. But he’s going to be a great player.
San Jose would be best. They need players like that. They have Will Smith, but they most need Celebrini.
Why won’t he get 100 Points?
For some reason he gets underrated. He is a sensational first overall choice, better than a lot of the recent seasons
Canadian NCAA player. So the Canadian media talks about him less cause he’s not a CHLer & the US media under hypes because he’s not from Edina MN, Plymouth MI, Scituate MA, etc.
I think it's the fact he came a year after the Bedard cycle, and his game isn't naturally flashy. Reminds me a lot of how Matthews went under the radar, just because he came a year after McDavid
Sure his no bedard but i want him to Ducks that we can win One nr one Draft pick
Would love to see Ottawa get him
Good thought…I am seeing Sens current group is one dimensional with loads of talent and energy..but without conscience for defending their leads.
@@mercywilliams2698 me too. I think they also just have no real system. As a Canucks fan, having a coaching staff with a strong system makes 10x the difference
@@irubanomlas Right! And Canucks very inspiring and show’s management took some time to transition and results now promising..
Wow Blackhawks will have 2 amazing centres to build a team around
Can someone please explain why the NHL drafts players so young? It seems like it’s way more of a crapshoot than it needs to be. Fans have to wait, bodies need to fill out, skills need to develop…when you could just wait a few years and enter the draft when you intend to play in the NHL the following season…
There could be guys like Bedard, granted exceptional status but why not wait til 21-22 when you have a way better idea as to what kind of player they’ll be?
The NHL has historically relied on the Canadian junior system to stage their prospects, rather than a college system. The expectation was that you moved from junior to pros directly. The Canadian college sports programmes aren't seen as anything special compared to major junior hockey. Most players finish major junior by their 19-20 year.
I believe the draft eligible year used to be a year later but they moved it back to 18 around Gretzky coming into the league. Players wanted to get paid sooner if they could.
Compared to NBA/NFL, very few NHL draft picks step into the league straight out of draft (
@@cdfmmcc thank you for the info!
To your last point, that’s kind of what I was thinking too. Similar to juniors, guys like Bedard, Crosby, McDavid, could be granted “exceptional status” and could be eligible for the draft at 18.
As a Ducks fan I don't want to sound too greedy, but its potentially super nasty what could happen if the Ducks draft Celebrini. Potential lineups of:
Zegras Carlsson Gauthier
Celebrini McTavish Terry
Zegras will most likely be traded.
Seems like this draft might be on the weaker side, although there a few high-end forwards and several good defenseman. I think Celebrini should be maybe a step below a Jack Hughes from the highlights and projections I’ve seen.
top 3 is stacked with the top finnish guy (sorry dunno name) and eiserman
@@hideyourgf8502Helenius should not go top 3.
Oh!
Sharks
People getting excited about Celebrity being a Shark or Blackhawk need a reminder that Anaheim sucks, too. 😏
Minnesota 😂
I hope for his sake Buffalo doesn't win the lottery.
That not true
Celebrini and Bedard play a similar style of hockey. Relying on a deceptive lightning quick release, that's highly accurate and they're able to dangle all over the ice. However, neither of them remind me of Martin St. Louis, which is how you actually have to play when your tiny. They can try to dance all over the ice, but eventually they'll walk into a brick wall and break bones, as we've seen with Bedard. Not my type of player.. but for the people who want the refs to win them games, I'm sure that they will be all the rage.
As a longtime NCAA fan, I don't see the hype around Celebrini. He's on a stacked BU team.Not to mention, those stats in the WJC are inflated, when Canada were beating up on those smaller countries. I don't think he's worth all this...
Celebrini will go 1st overall easily.

Buddy hasnt watched hockey in his life ever lol.
Led the USHL in points as a U17 and was leading the NCAA in scoring as a U18 before the World Juniors. Before yapping about "mUh weaker competition" how come Canadas other forwards didnt show up on the scoresheet at all outside of Celebrini? He accelerated his schooling to play up a level from USHL and is going to shatter Toews' U18 record in NCAA scoring. He drives the bus for that BU team if you even had a pair of eyes and watched lol.
@@Annexation_ If he's that good, how come he couldn't carry Canada out of the quarters at the WJC? Would love to see all this glazing if he was on a team that wasn't stacked with all these other big name prospects, like if he played at Merrimack or UNH... Also, if he "drives the bus" for BU, how come no one defended him after he got his shit rocked against Lowell?
@@ThatGuy1001000 because that whole Canadian team was ass. Buddy youve never watched hockey in your life, *TEAMS* win championships in hockey and not individuals, basic math and logic seems to not be your forte however.
Also lol at this weaker competition argument. BU has to face BC in Hockey East and that team is loaded with a good chunk of the US gold medal team coming from that squad, everytime ive watched BU play them he has outshined everyone on both rosters (BU is also really good with Hutson, Willander, etc.). The bottom half of the table in HE is nowhere near to being the worst in the nation and UMass Amherst, Providence, and Maine all have good teams this year, while UNH, Merrimack and Vermont are all at or above .500 and are all far better teams than whatever Latvia and Germany could ice, even then remind me which player aside from Celebrini had a 5 point game against either of those teams please?
If youre going to lie about knowing anything before spewing an opinion that doesnt matter, at least say so.
We all know he’s going to Chicago
We can all only hope
You should be wearing a Chicago jersey because that is were he is going.
