Macklin Celebrini Shines in Sharks Debut Amid Couture's Persistent Injury Issues
Thursday, September 19th, 2024
Macklin Celebrini's first training session with the San Jose Sharks has brought a sense of hope to the struggling team. Although team captain Logan Couture is sidelined with a groin injury, Celebrini made a strong impression during the scrimmage, scoring a goal and creating multiple scoring chances.
During the practice, Celebrini played alongside Tyler Toffoli, a notable addition to the Sharks roster. Toffoli commended Celebrini's abilities, emphasizing the need to get the puck to him.
Couture is currently out of action due to osteitis pubis. Despite a difficult year, he has noticed an improvement in his condition. He doesn’t have a specific date for his return to skating, but he remains optimistic about making a comeback this season.
Even with his contract in place, Couture's return remains uncertain. General manager Mike Grier stated that rushing Couture's recovery would be ill-advised. The team intends to support his recovery and looks forward to his contributions as a leader and captain once he is fully healed.
