SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) \u2014 Adam Gaudette<\/a> scored with 21 seconds left, Alexander Wennberg<\/a> and Macklin Celebrini<\/a> each had two goals and an assist, and the San Jose Sharks<\/a> beat St. Louis 5-4 on Monday night to snap the Blues\u2019 three-game winning streak. <\/p>\n

On the rush, Gaudette flicked a wrist shot from near the left faceoff spot that trickled between the legs of goalie Joel Hofer<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The 19-year-old Celebrini, the No. 1 selection in the 2024 draft, has 38 goals and 63 assists \u2014 making him the sixth different teenager in NHL history with at least 100 points in a season. <\/p>\n
