Macklin Celebrini scores the tying goal in the third period, then makes the winning assist to William Eklund. (1:55)
The season is disappearing quickly, so don’t take your fantasy lineup for granted. The projections at the top certainly come down to the nitty-gritty at this stage, as each game remaining gets amplified in importance. Macklin Celebrini and the San Jose Sharks have two games in hand on Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers, which makes the small difference between first and second in the projected fantasy points.
These rankings are based on expectations of fantasy points produced from Thursday, Jan. 15, until the end of the season.
