Ottawa's defense is vulnerable to zone entries and sustained offensive pressure, ranking outside the top 15 in the league in defensive efficiency. The Senators' penalty kill has also struggled at times, giving Celebrini premium power-play chances to rack up helpers. San Jose's pace-and-shoot approach under their coaching staff creates natural assist-friendly situations, and Celebrini's skill set as a pass-first playmaker pairs perfectly with this system.
