DeBrincat scored a goal on six shots and added two hits in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrincat tallied with 1:19 left in the third period, but the Blackhawks couldn't find an equalizer after that. The 23-year-old winger has scored 10 times and added three assists in 14 games since the start of November. He's at 14 tallies, four helpers, 74 shots, 37 hits and a minus-6 rating in 23 contests overall. The high shot volume is a good sign for the American, whose career high in goals is 41, set back in 2018-19.

DeBrincat scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 4-3 shootout win over Washington.
EDGE Analysis
His snipe came in the first period on a pretty 2-on-1 passing play from Patrick Kane. DeBrincat is white hot right now -- he has nine goals in his last 12 games and is flirting with a 50-goal pace. Without a disproportionately high shooting rate. This feels real, even if the plus-minus isn't great and his point total is more Cy Young than Art Ross. Use him well.

DeBrincat scored twice on four shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrincat put away a goal on a double deflection in the first period and scored on a 2-on-0 rush in the third, but that was all the Blackhawks could put past Stuart Skinner. The 23-year-old DeBrincat is running hot with seven goals and two assists in his last seven contests. He's up to 11 tallies, three helpers, 51 shots on net and 25 hits through 17 contests overall.

DeBrincat scored a goal on four shots, dished an assist and served a fighting major in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrincat was in on the Blackhawks' first two goals, setting up Seth Jones in the first period and scoring in the second himself. In the third, DeBrincat surprisingly dropped the mitts with Yanni Gourde to complete a rather unlikely Gordie Howe hat trick. Never known for his toughness, DeBrincat now has nine goals, three helpers, nine PIM, 47 shots on net and 24 hits through 16 contests this season. Expect the winger to use his talented hands more for scoring than fighting going forward.

DeBrincat notched an assist and fired a team-high eight shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-2 shootout win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrincat helped out on Seth Jones' second-period tally. The eight shots were a season high for DeBrincat, who is up to nine points, 42 shots, 23 hits and a minus-6 rating through 14 contests. He's been more of a finisher than a set-up man in 2021-22 -- his assist Tuesday was just his second of the year.

DeBrincat delivered a power-play goal Friday, but the Blackhawks lost to the Hurricanes, 6-3.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrincat leads the Blackhawks with four goals on the season, but his minus-10 rating exposes his defensive struggles. The Blackhawks have yet to win this season, so they'll need DeBrincat to play away from the puck more frequently; he's starting a whopping 80 percent of his 5-on-5 shifts in the offensive zone.
