Sharks Win 2 in OT! Celebrini, Smith & Dallas Reaction

<p>Join Paul and Aaron for Episode 298 of The Fin Factor as we talk about the San Jose Sharks opening the season with back-to-back overtime wins over the Florida Panthers and LA Kings, plus our reaction to tonight&#39;s game against the Dallas Stars. Macklin Celebrini has 5 assists through two games, Will Smith and Igor Chernyshov are finding the back of the net, and the power play is rolling.</p><p><br></p><p>We dig into the analytics with The Good, The Bad and The Ugly: why the floodgates are about to open for Celebrini and Smith, a dominant top power play unit, and Darnell Nurse and Michael Kesselring looking like a legit top pair. On the other side: Dmitry Orlov and Luca Cagnoni getting caved at 5v5, a leaky penalty kill, and why the Chernyshov, Michael Misa and Tyler Toffoli line is due for regression. We also check in on the Calder Trophy race, break down how the new look blue line and breakouts differ from last season, and compare the top two picks from the 2026 NHL Draft, Gavin McKenna and Ivar Stenberg. </p><p><br></p><p>Not a channel member yet?
