Jeff Skinner, a 15-year NHL veteran, has had six 30-goal seasons in his career. However, his numbers dropped to 16 goals last year with the Edmonton Oilers.
Now with the San Jose Sharks, Skinner is getting settled into his new team and aims to return to his past goal-scoring form.
Skinner spoke about skating with Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith, citing their talent and work ethic as key factors in their success.
