EDGE Analysis

DeBrincat scored the only goal in the first period with less than two minutes remaining. DeBrincat has two goals and three assists in his last two contests. Overall, the 27-year-old winger has 31 goals, 27 assists and 193 shots on net in 66 games this season. DeBrincat has the 12th-most goals in the league and has been performing well since the beginning of February. The 65-point mark is a safe bet for him to reach this season, but with another big performance, he could crack the 70-point threshold for the third time in his eight-year career. He is a must-start in all formats down the stretch while the Red Wings fight for a playoff spot.
