What Macklin Celebrini, Sharks are saying about prospect Igor Chernyshov
Chernyshov, 20, leads Sharks' top line replacing injured winger, after scoring 23 points in 25 AHL games, making his NHL debut against the Flames.
- On Tuesday, Igor Chernyshov will make his NHL debut for the San Jose Sharks, filling in for injured Will Smith and starting on the top line alongside Macklin Celebrini during a three-game homestand versus the Calgary Flames.
- Less than 11 months ago, Chernyshov scored 18 points in 6 Saginaw OHL games and led the Barracuda with 23 points in 25 AHL games.
- Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky and Barracuda staff praised Chernyshov's skating and play, while peers noted his processing and use of his 6-foot-2 and 195-pound frame earlier this month.
- The recall creates an immediate test with Will Smith out indefinitely, and Sharks coaching staff are eager to see him play tonight as team chemistry develops.
- Chernyshov called 2025 "magical" as he takes his biggest step yet less than a month after his 20th birthday, with coaching adjustments helping him adapt quickly at NHL speed.
