After the game, Ryan Warsofsky spoke on the San Jose Sharks’ improved forecheck, Celebrini talked about not backing down to Kaedan Korczak, Ivar Stenberg discussed gaining more trust from the coaching staff, and Marchment shared the emotional side of scoring his 100th career NHL goal.
Ryan Warsofsky
Warsofsky, on the San Jose Sharks’ improvement going from defense-to-offense tonight:
I thought we did a good job on our forecheck. Something we talked about. That was a step in the right direction, for sure.
Warsofsky, on Michael Kesselring’s performance:
Yeah, he was skating, and we’ve seen it. There’s times when he can make plays and times when he needs to be a little bit more cautious in what play he’s making. And I thought tonight he had some good balance in that. He was making plays.
Macklin Celebrini
Celebrini, on Kaedan Korczak confrontation:
I mean, just like a normal hit, and then just a little scuffle after. If he’s getting in my face, I’m not gonna back away. I talked to the ref after and cleared it all up.
Ivar Stenberg
Stenberg, on his no-goal:
I didn’t expect it to be a goal, to be honest. Because of [my] high stick. But the referee told me that you can’t take the puck into the net with your body on purpose. I don’t know. I didn’t expect it to be a goal.
Mason Marchment
Marchment, on Celebrini looking up to sky on the San Jose Sharks’ first goal:
It’s not been easy for us to put up a bunch of goals lately. We got the talent in here to do it. I don’t think that’ll last for too long.
Marchment, on his 100th NHL goal: “My son was here today. Getting to score for him, it’s awesome. For me, especially when I was younger, never thinking I was going to play [in the NHL], it’s pretty special.”

Marchment, on one-year-old son Banks:
He doesn’t make every game. He’s just a little guy there.
