Celebrini Becomes Highest Paid NHL Star | San Jose Sharks News

The San Jose Sharks just handed out a blockbuster five-year, $94 million contract to Macklin Celebrini, making him the highest-paid player in the NHL starting in 2027–28. At $18.8 million per year, the deal locks in the 2024 No. 1 overall pick as the franchise cornerstone — a star who already boasts 45 goals and 115 points in his sophomore season, earned Olympic gold as Canada’s youngest player ever, and even graced the cover of NHL 27. With this extension, Celebrini won’t hit free agency until he’s 26, giving the Sharks maximum flexibility to build a championship contender around him.
