Alex DeBrincat finishes the season with the same number of goals and one more assist compared to 2022-23

[SirloinUB]

NGL, Pretty pleased with Debrincat. He was the the 3rd most productive player on the team and added a "true shooting threat" which opens up a little more space for everyone else on the ice.

10/10 would do this trade again from the Detroit perspective.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Only 27 goals? Didn't he have like 12 of those in the first 8 games

Probably has something to do with the 11/14 losses in Maŕch

Partly, but ADB relies on his center a lot and not coincidentally Larkin going down hurt him. Also the coach putting him on Comphers line far too often. Detroit has a 1C and a bunch of high end 3Cs. They need another top 6 center badly because Compher, Copp, Rasmussen, Veleno ain’t it.

 

[robsenz]

To be fair, he played a minute less per game this year than last, and 3 mins less per game than his peak Hawks years.

This is actually hilarious because he was complaining about his ice time after last year, which wasn't even a legit arguement he had in Ottawa.

Damn maybe it's not the ice time and was the terrible organization he was a part of. Idk

This thread, like all DeBrincat discussions here, is beyond silly.

Fact: the likelihood that pick #22-32 (Boston's based on their playoff run) + soon to be perennial ECHLer Dono Sebrango, comes anywhere close to the value of DeBrincat on a phenomenal contract (the term they got him on was fantastic given what tends to happen to one dimensional players on the wrong side of 30), is extremely slim to none.

He should have gone on record saying that. But weird comment considering this thread is pointing out how lateral his year went on I guess a formerly great organization?

 

[ACLEVERNAME]

He's a good player who works hard and plays both sides of the ice. 67 points and sound d-zone awareness is more than you could hope for on a contract like that. If he could tighten up his streakyness and play a more constant game he'd be a bargain.

Love the Cat!

Nine in the first 7 games.

 

[thefutures]

Not bad for a late 1st round pick

 

[The Pale King]

Are there any examples of exact the same seasons by one player?

I noticed the other day Daryl Evans finished his career with four straight one-point seasons, which is just super weird to me. Infinitely harder to do than four straight zero point seasons, but at the end of the day, only 4 extra points.

Or if we want to get really weird and obscure, we could say something like "despite playing in the NHL between 1981 and 1987, Daryl Evans has twice as many career multi-point playoff games as he does multi-point regular seasons.

This is the same Daryl Evans who scored 4 points in his first ever playoff game in a 10-8 win over the Oilers, matching Gretzky's 4 point output, in the first two periods no less. This is not the Miracle on Manchester game either, where Evans scored the OT winner a couple days later, eliminating the Oilers from the playoffs. He ended his playoff run with 13 points in 11 games after losing to the upstart Canucks.

His next four points would take 1748 days for him to accumulate (April 19th, 1982 - Jan. 31st, 1987).

Just for fun, including the playoffs, Gretzky scored 1092 points during that span. Gretz and Evans played against each-other only once after that 81-82 matchup, and fittingly Wayne put up a very casual four point night as part of an 8-2 Oilers win over the Kings on October 26th, 1984.

But I digress.

I don't follow the Wings, but surprised he only had 27 goals.

Small perimeter forward with a nose for the net and quick release. But he can dissappear for games at a time. Like Caufield.

 

[I Hate Blake Coleman]

DeBrincat 2022-23 with Ottawa: 82 GP, 27 Goals, 39 Assists, 66 Points
DeBrcinat 2023-24 with Detroit: 82 GP, 27 Goals, 40 Assists, 67 Points

Next year will he finish with 27 Goals and 41 Assists?

Didn't he have 9 goals in the first 7 games? 18 goals in the remaining 75 games?????

 

[WarriorofTime]

Didn't he have 9 goals in the first 7 games? 18 goals in the remaining 75 games?????

Correct.

 

[nbwingsfan]

This is who he is most years: 30 goals/70 points. Good two-way player.

I wouldnt go as far as to say good two way player. He doesn’t dog it defensively but good god he’s knocked off the puck/out muscles a lot

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

What a bum, at least Kubalik tore it up this season!

Tore, Kubalik and bum all in one sentence is so fitting to define his season.

 

[swiftwin]

What a bum, at least Kubalik tore it up this season!

Kubalik scored more goals per dollar than DeBrincat

 

[LarKing]

Kubalik scored more goals per dollar than DeBrincat

And Debrincat outscored him by 52 points. The preseason takes of Kubalik only being a minor downgrade were pretty funny

LOL! Cope more.

 

[Atoyot]

Not exact throughout, but Wheeler scored 26 goals in 3 consecutive seasons, also had 91 points in consecutive seasons.

 

[Melrose Munch]

He's mid and of course, his switch to Detroit produced the same results. He might be a bad team scorer...

 

[nbwingsfan]

Kubalik scored more goals per dollar than DeBrincat

67pts vs 15pts lol

But sure, just a minor downgrade.

 

[WaW]

LOL! Cope more.

Bro if you actually believe that Kubalik was only a small downgrade from DeBrincat then something is seriously wrong with you lol.

 

[Sentinel]

Actually most of the Red Wings fans are fine with him. Yes, it would be nice for him to score more but he is not Marian Hossa after all. He is a good hockey player though.

He is far worse than Marian Hossa. Hossa was good without the puck and on defense. This guy is totally useless in both components.

 

[raymond23]

I don't understand the obsession with this guy

3rd most points on the team
Fits like a glove with Larkin
Even got in 2 fights
