Bleacher Report’s Sara Civian has posted an article discussing players to “get excited about” on each and every one of the NHL’s 32 teams, and she’s picking Alex DeBrincat from Detroit:
Detroit Red Wings: Alex DeBrincat
Do I think DeBrincat will come in and be the best player on this burgeoning Red Wings roster? No, and that would be a bad sign if he did. It’s Moritz Seider szn, with a dash of Lucas Raymond.
Do I think DeBrincat will come in and make Seider szn, along with everything else, a heck of a lot easier? Indeed. Between the cheap-ish hometown deal, the opportunity to play for a team better suited for him and the spunky winger with a million goals still left in him ready to unleash, I’m pumped for this change of scenery. Not to mention the impact he could have on Raymond, should they play on the same line.
Continued; DeBrincat’s definitely an offensive catalyst. He passes, he forechecks, he hits–he’s not just a goal-scorer.
