Securing his second NHL All-Star selection in his career, Alex DeBrincat is set to proudly represent the Detroit Red Wings at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena in less than a month. As expected, he is delighted to once again receive the prestigious honor of being named an All-Star.
The Michigan native is in his 1st season with Detroit
DeBrincat was brought to the Red Wings during the offseason to address a crucial requirement for goal-scoring. Detroit acquired him from the Ottawa Senators, trading Dominik Kubalik, prospect defenseman Donovan Sebrango, a conditional 2024 first-round draft pick, and Detroit’s fourth-round selection in 2024.
In his initial 39 games donning the Winged Wheel, DeBrincat has amassed 38 points (17 goals, 21 assists), maintaining a pace that could lead to an impressive total of 80 points.
