Detroit Red Wings deal first-round pick, fourth round selection, Dominik Kubalik, defensive prospect Donovan Sebrango to Ottawa Senators for Alex DeBrincat
Steve Yzerman made a major move to give the rebuilding Detroit Red Wings a desperately needed boost.
Yzerman made a series of subtle deals earlier this summer, adding depth at every position, before making a splash with DeBrincat. The 25-year-old DeBrincat, who scored 41 goals in two of his six NHL seasons, has 187 goals and 373 points in his career with the Senators and Chicago Blackhawks. He had 27 goals – including 11 on the power play and six that won games – and 66 points last season.
The Red Wings have been in a bad spot for several years, failing to make the playoffs for seven straight seasons, after winning four Stanley Cups during a run of 25 consecutive postseason appearances. Finding players who can put the puck in the net was a priority this summer, particularly after trading wingers Tyler Bertuzzi to Boston and Jakub Vrana to St. Louis last season. Yzerman had bolstered depth up front this summer with newly acquired players such as 2022 Stanley Cup-winning forward J.T. Compher.
