Bro was spammin’ passes 😭

What did you think?

Another pass, another chance. Macklin Celebrini finds Dickinson for a shot off the post, then sends the puck across to Misa for a one-timer that Ilya Sorokin saves. Neither chance produces a goal, but the Sharks' pressure keeps coming.

NHL on ESPN calls the Short "Bro was spammin' passes 😭", and the joke fits the sequence: Celebrini keeps making himself available, recovering possession and finding someone else to shoot. A red arrow follows him through the play, making the work between passes as easy to spot as the passes themselves.

The clip drew roughly 48,000 views in its first day, more than eleven times the channel's usual start for Shorts. The comments were also much busier than usual, with viewers discussing his positioning and the way he keeps moving into useful spaces rather than waiting for the puck.

An early diving intervention by Adam Pelech breaks up the Sharks' rush, but it doesn't end the attack. Later, Celebrini intercepts a clearing attempt along the boards, retains possession with a neat stick-handling move and feeds Will Smith. By the final seconds, he's pivoting again, looking for another lane toward the crease. It's a highlight built around creating chances, not finishing them.

He keeps moving and putting himself in position, absolutely brilliant and so many don’t do that

It's true, he was right where everyone needed him! This is what we need to see more often 👌

From what I’ve seen on him, he is an A++ center. He is everywhere a center should be. From under the goal to the blue line on both ends of the ice.
