Sharks rally against Penguins, settle for lone point as road trip ends

Macklin Celebrini, a rookie for the Sharks, grew up idolizing Sidney Crosby, witnessing him lift the Stanley Cup in 2016-2017, which inspired his career.

The Sharks fought back to tie the Penguins 3-3 after falling behind 3-0, showing resilience but ultimately lost in a shootout for the second time this week.

Goalie Mackenzie Blackwood was crucial in the game, stepping in with 25 saves after Vitek Vanecek’s absence and previously achieved a 44-save shutout this road trip.
