DeBrincat posted an assist in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
While DeBrincat snapped a four-game point drought with the lone helper, he still leads the team with 17 goals and 39 points through 42 games. DeBrincat has seven goals and six assists on the man advantage, so he's on pace for a slight drop off after posting 30 power-play points with the Senators last season, but he's still flirting with a point-per-game pace overall.

DeBrincat delivered three assists in Friday's 7-6 shootout win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
All three helpers came in the first period to help the Red Wings build a 5-1 lead. The Flyers stormed back in the contest, but Detroit was able to escape with the win. DeBrincat has two multi-point performances in the last three games. Through 11 contests in December, the 26-year-old has amassed three goals and 10 points. With Patrick Kane heating up on his opposite wing, DeBrincat could be headed for a scoring surge that carries him straight into the New Year.

DeBrincat registered a power-play assist, five shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrincat set up Joe Veleno's third-period marker. The assist gave DeBrincat a goal and five helpers over his last six contests. The 25-year-old will be relied on for more offense while Dylan Larkin (upper body) and J.T. Compher (undisclosed) are on injured reserve. DeBrincat has 13 goals, 13 helpers, nine power-play points, 87 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 27 outings this season as a fixture in Detroit's top six.

DeBrincat registered an assist in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrincat set the stage for Patrick Kane's first goal as a Red Wing. It's common knowledge that those two originally were linemates with the Blackhawks; Kane was instrumental in helping Cat to a pair of 41-goal seasons. Wings coach Derek Lalonde might have to get creative with his line combinations since captain Dylan Larkin sustained an undisclosed injury in Saturday's game, but DeBrincat, of course, is a mainstay in the top-six group of forwards, carrying 13 goals and 12 assists through 26 games heading into Monday's road clash with the Stars.

DeBrincat had a goal and an assist Saturday in a 5-4 overtime win over the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
The goal was his 200th. It came on the power play early in the second period when he set up below the left circle and one-timed a shot between Jake Allen's pads to finish off a three-way passing play. DeBrincat (473 games) became the 12th United States-born player to score 200 goals in fewer than 500 games. Auston Matthews of the Maple Leafs (338 games), Kyle Connor of the Jets (429) and Jake Guentzel of the Penguins (463) are the only other active U.S.-born players to accomplish the feat.
