He played his way on to the team.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s a top-five, seven, player in the world, no questions,\u201d Nathan MacKinnon said.<\/p>\n Mack’s impressing everyone. \ud83d\udc4c pic.twitter.com\/sXWeUCP69X<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 San Jose Sharks (@SanJoseSharks) February 12, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n Team Canada won with relative ease, shutting out Czechia 5-0.<\/p>\n Celebrini played 17:14, second among all Canadian forwards, and notched two shots.
