Macklin Celebrini Will Be Tried As An Adult For Murdering This Corner
Ummmmm excuse me. Come again?
Is this kid fucking serious right now?
I don't think it's possible to pick a corner any crispier than Celebrini did right there. We're talking as plumb against that corner as it gets. Like when the DVD logo gets the corner.
Now you can really tell that Macklin Celebrini grew up his whole life watching Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors. He's the way younger Splash Step Brother.
And what's maddening about that shot is how nonchalant the whole thing looked. So unassuming. He's looking off the shot the entire time he's carrying the puck. Makes it look like he's getting ready to feed it cross ice the whole way, and then bam. Puck does right over David Rittich's shoulder and is STAPLED to the corner. What a little freak.
Two goals and an assist on the night for the 18-year-old.
Not a bad night for the kid. Unfortunately, he still won't win the Calder this year because Matvei Michkov continues to fill the net at an alarming rate.
