AlexDeBrincat

ESPN Fantasy Projection: DeBrincat arrived in Ottawa last season following a half decade with the Blackhawks. His numbers dropped considerably, as he finished with 27 goals and 66 points in 82 games, a far cry from the 41 goals and 78 points in 82 games we saw from him in 2021-22. DeBrincat's dip in production directly correlates with his shooting percentage dipping to 10.3, a number well below his 13.4 percent career mark. The Michigan native made it clear he wasn't interested in inking a new deal with the Senators, so the club dealt him to his hometown Red Wings in July. DeBrincat signed a four-year, $31.5 million extension as part of the trade. DeBrincat may not reach the heights we saw from him in his best days in Chicago, but fantasy managers can expect an improvement on his pedestrian numbers from a year ago in 2023-24.
