Sharks win No. 1 NHL draft pick; can Macklin Celebrini deliver hope?

·

Sometimes losing pays.

On Tuesday, it paid out in a big way for the San Jose Sharks.

Yes, after years of misery on ice, the Sharks have hope.

It comes in the form of a six-foot, 190-pound center — the no-analysis-necessary No. 1 overall pick in June’s NHL draft.

The Sharks won the top pick in the draft lottery Tuesday night. Their league-worst record this past season gave them the best odds to win, and their combination hit.

And in a few weeks, the team will use that pick to select Macklin Celebrini.

Yes, Tuesday was a Celebrini celebration for suffering Sharks fans.
