In the fantasy hockey department, RotoWire’s John Litterine examines prominent offseason moves as they apply to fantasy hockey poolies, and he spotlights the Red Wings trade for Alex DeBrincat:
DeBrincat’s one season in Ottawa was underwhelming. He scored just 27 goals (and 66 points) in 82 games while finishing with a horrific minus-31 rating in 2022-23. That said, DeBrincat is still just 25 years of age, exceedingly durable, and he’ll be joining a team on the rise in the Red Wings. The Farmington Hills, Michigan native should be extremely motivated for a bounce-back performance with his new club.
Continued, with a mention of J.T. Compher coming off his career-best offensive season; here’s hoping that DeBrincat is indeed “durable.”
