They say that if Ivan Demidov had played his junior hockey in North America, he could have gone first overall, but that doesn't take away from Macklin Celebrini's talent.

With the start of the season that Ivan Demidov is having in the KHL, we can say that several GMs must already be kicking themselves, especially those in Anaheim and Columbus, who each selected a forward (Beckett Sennecke and Cayden Lindstrom) who are injured.

Returning to Mack Celebrini, the young prospect of the San Jose Sharks has earned his spot at number one overall, as he had an excellent year in the NCAA with none other than Lane Hutson and Boston University.

During his appearance on the Spittin' Chiclets podcast in July, the young sensation had very good things to say about Lane Hutson. One could even say he is a fan and has no doubt about his potential.

This is exactly what we've seen from Lane Hutson since the beginning of camp. His vision, puck handling, fakes, and quick execution are among the elite, and he's still a rookie.

The two former teammates won't have the pleasure of facing each other often, but it will always be special matchups for them, no doubt!
