Scott LaughlinHOST
Three or more points for the third straight game against Montreal, dating back to last season.
Scott LaughlinHOST
He's now got six goals and 12 points in just five career games against the Canadians, so very Crosby-esque there as well, when you talk about Celebrini stepping up for the San Jose Sharks, who played last night without Alexander Wennberg.
Scott LaughlinHOST
He didn't play after suffering that injury in that loss against the Leafs, going back, uh, to Monday night.
Scott LaughlinHOST
Uh, speaking of the Leafs, they're on the road at Nationwide.
DylanHOST
Um, and yeah, this is something that they've done since Chandler Stephenson came in.
DylanHOST
It's what they did really since day one, right? 'Cause uh, Alexander Wennberg was in this situation-
RJHOST
Yep
DylanHOST
... that Chandler Stephenson was kind of in prior to, uh, Chandler Stephenson coming in.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
Let's take a look at what that top power play has been, and I'm seeing we have a tweet yeah going into the game.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
Orlov, Stenberg, Celebrini, Smith, Wennberg is the top power play, which means that maybe you forget about your Cagnoni, who appears to be scratched today.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
That's a shame.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
Nurse is back in the lineup.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
Get Or- get someone on the top power play.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
[laughs] So you're obviously not gonna get Celebrini or Smith.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
Wennberg is the exception, of course.
Elan DubrofskyHOST
Alex Wennberg, even on the top power play, doesn't do anything.
Flip LivingstoneHOST
Very thin.
Flip LivingstoneHOST
And Dmitry Orlov doesn't blow the doors off, but right now the deployment, you can't ignore him playing on the top power play unit with Wennberg, Stenberg, Macklin Celebrini, and Will Smith
Steele RodinHOST
SmithNo, absolutely.
Steele RodinHOST
Again, you gotta look to where the opportunity rises, and that is with Dmitri Orlov right now.
JD YoungHOST
Uh, but I think the Sharks offense continues to see more signs of the Sharks offense that we expect.
JD YoungHOST
Um, give me an Alex Wennberg goal.
JD YoungHOST
Uh, I think he's been playing well and has maybe gotten a little bit, uh, snakebit.
JD YoungHOST
Give me an Alex Wennberg goal in this game.
JD YoungHOST
Um, and you know, give me a, give me a Stenberg goal in this game.
JD YoungHOST
So give me a w- uh, give me the Wennberg/Stenberg combo, and I think the Sharks win 4-1.
BrianHOST
Um, so who knows what the lines, they might shuffle a little bit, but I don't think you can go wrong with either Hartman or Coleman if Shibanov is taken, um, for that power play one exposure.
Nate Groot NibbelinkHOST
All right, and in San Jose we have Ivar Stenberg, Kiefer Sherwood, Mason Marchment, Michael Musa, Luca Cagnoni on the back end, Igor Chernyakov, Tyler Toffoli, Dmitri Orlov, Alexander Wennberg.
Nate Groot NibbelinkHOST
There's a lot of names there-
BrianHOST
Yeah
Dan RusanowskyHOST
All in all, the Sharks feel pretty good about the way that they've been progressing this season.
Dan RusanowskyHOST
Alex Wennberg acknowledged that there's still a lot of work to be done, but he likes the way things are trending.
Alex WennbergSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Yeah, I think it was, it was a better game for sure.
Alex WennbergSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I feel like we did a lot of good things.
Dan RusanowskyHOST
Center Michael Amesa and his winger, Center Michael Amesa and winger Igor Chernyakov both played in Saginaw in the Ontario Hockey League.
Dan RusanowskyHOST
Ty Delandri played in Flint, which isn't too far away, and assistant coach Brian Wiseman played his college hockey at the University of Michigan in nearby Ann Arbor.
Dan RusanowskyHOST
But the other connection is familial, as Alex Wennberg will face off against his first cousin, Anton Johansson, for the very first time.
Dan RusanowskyHOST
He's looking forward to facing him in the corner.
Josh HarrisHOST
Uh, the Little Caesars have a 3.5 total.
Josh HarrisHOST
Sharks going Celebrini, Smith, Chernyshov, Wennberg, Marchment, Toffoli, Misa, Stenberg, Sherwood.
Josh HarrisHOST
Detroit going Larkin, Arvidsson, Raymond, Finney, DeBrincat, Brännström, Nyguard, Negard, the best to ever do it.
Josh HarrisHOST
There's a lot of the best to ever do it on this slate.
Josh HarrisHOST
I prefer the Sharks top line just because they're coming in at 3.5% projected compared to 16.7% projected.
Josh HarrisHOST
You still get two to the three on the top power play in Smith and Celebrini.
Josh HarrisHOST
You wanna turn it into a power play stack, put on Stenberg instead of Chernyshov at 17K even, or even Wennberg.
Josh HarrisHOST
You know, you're still saving 300 there.
Dan RusanowskySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
The Sharks put fresh skaters on.
Dan RusanowskySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
It's Marchment and Wennberg working for it.
Dan RusanowskySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Marchment reaching for a Wennberg pass, right corner of the Preds' end.
Dan RusanowskySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
A little drop behind the goal.
Dan RusanowskySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Wennberg keeps it going.
Dan RusanowskySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
There's Toffoli just on center ice.
Dan RusanowskySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Score! Mason Marchment gets the pass from Tyler Toffoli, and makes it one-nothing Sharks.
Pete WeberHOST
Predators continue to put the pressure on.
Pete WeberHOST
[skates screeches] Marchment to the right side, puts it behind the net for Wennberg, sweeping it out in front, and the shot and the score.
Pete WeberHOST
San Jose gets goal number one of the hockey game five and a half minutes in.
Pete WeberHOST
[horn blaring] And it's one-nothing San Jose.
Pete WeberHOST
[skates screeches] Two seconds to go, and a try by O'Reilly missing the net to the short side.
Pete WeberHOST
So it is one-nothing San Jose.
Pete WeberHOST
[skates screeches] Gets it to Wennberg, trying to step out in front, thrown right back in front, and Saros stepped in front of that shot.
Pete WeberHOST
Now Wennberg looking across left, outside, and that shot by Celebrini is held by Saros with 1:01 gone on the penalty.
