Incessant San Jose Sharks losing takes a big toll: It's a mental battle'
"The individual, whose TikTok handle is @judijupiter, asked Smith and Celebrini one question after another, including a peculiar request to stand up and spin around. Celebrini and Smith mostly smiled, answered the questions, and politely complied with the request in a video that had close to 400,000 views as of early Wednesday. Unfortunately for the Sharks' organization over the last few days, that's been one of the few sources of amusement."
"Over the weekend, on a night in which they celebrated their community's Hispanic heritage, the team had to apologize for an offensively worded message' supportive of ICE that was displayed on their SAP Center scoreboard. After the game, a 3-0 Sharks loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins, coach Ryan Warsofsky said he'd give up one of his two young children for a win, another viral remark for which he later apologized."
San Jose Sharks forwards Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith were approached by a woman with the TikTok handle @judijupiter who asked rapid questions and requested they spin, producing a video nearing 400,000 views. Over a recent weekend celebration of Hispanic heritage, an offensively worded, ICE-supportive message appeared on the SAP Center scoreboard, prompting an apology. After a 3-0 loss to Pittsburgh, coach Ryan Warsofsky said he'd give up one of his two young children for a win, later apologizing. On the ice, the Sharks sit 0-4-2 and 31st in the NHL, with three one-goal losses. Players report rising frustration and a mounting mental battle, exemplified by Celebrini smashing his stick after a 4-3 loss to the Islanders.
