Alex DeBrincat’s five goals in three games were enough to earn him recognition as the NHL’s No. 2 Star of the week.
He registered two goals and three points in a 6-3 win against Anaheim. DeBrincat also netted his 33rd game-winning goal in that contest. He followed that with two goals in a 5-4 overtime loss to the Buffalo Sabres. DeBrincat tallied Detroit’s first goal in the Red Wings’ 2-1 win against the New York Rangers.
Coach Todd McLellan’s decision to insert DeBrincat on the top line with Dylan Larkin and Lucas Raymond has had the desired impact. The Red Wings now have their version of a Super Line. The trio boasts chemistry and productivity: Raymond had seven points in those same three games, while Larkin totaled 14 shots on goal and four points in those same three outings.
Whether the line stays together may have more to do with how Patrick Kane performs over the next few games. Kane and DeBrincat also have a quality history together. The question that must be answered is” Is one Super Line better than two balanced lines?
