19-Year-Old CenterC
San Jose Sharks
2024 Fantasy Outlook
While much of the attention will be on Macklin Celebrini, Smith also figures to be a key rookie for the Sharks in 2024-25. Smith's playmaking is his best trait after he racked up 25 goals and 46 assists in 41 appearances for Boston College as a freshman last season. The 19-year-old was selected fourth overall in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft, so Smith has plenty of pedigree as a prospect. Look for Smith to push for 40-plus points, though his plus-minus is likely to be poor as the Sharks work through at least one more year of a deep rebuild. Read Past Outlooks

Deals assist Tuesday
CSan Jose Sharks
January 15, 2025
Smith notched an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Red Wings.
ANALYSIS
Smith has gone eight games without a goal, but he has two helpers over his last five appearances. The 19-year-old forward has moved around the lineup at times, but he was able to take a regular shift Tuesday after getting benched in Saturday's loss to the Wild. Smith is up to 15 points, 55 shots on net and a minus-15 rating over 38 contests in 2024-25.
