DeBrincat was almost a point-a-game player on a poor Blackhawks&#8217; team\u00a0last season. Honestly, where can any NHL team go to get a proven scorer for that kind of return? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">BLOCKBUSTER: The Ottawa Senators have just found Tim St\u00fctzle\u2019s newest linemate. <br><br>Welcome to the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Sens?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Sens<\/a>, Alex DeBrincat! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/rNK3AAZTS7\">pic.twitter.com\/rNK3AAZTS7<\/a><\/p>&mdash; SENS TALK (@senstalk_) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/senstalk_\/status\/1545140832558276610?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 7, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>But then, you can never tell about a second-round 39th pick. Ironically, that&#8217;s what the Senators traded to the Blackhawks; and, that&#8217;s what DeBrincat was during the 2016 NHL Entry Draft. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps, if the Blackhawks look at it that way, they&#8217;ll pick up another player just like him in the second round later today. If they do, they&#8217;ve then also scored Kevin Korchinski at pick No. 7 &#8211; he&#8217;s an 18-year-old defenseman from Saskatoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/thehockeywriters.com\/ottawa-senators-news-white-gaudette-alfredsson\/\">Ottawa Senators News &amp; Rumors: White, Gaudette &amp; Alfredsson<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Senators Found a Key Player for Their Roster<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>About the only thing not to like about DeBrincat is his size. But the 24-year-old can play; and, he can score. Already &#8211; including last season &#8211; he put up 41 goals for the second time in his career. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Senators&#8217; general manager <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/senators\/news\/ottawa-senators-acquire-forward-alex-debrincat-from-chicago\/c-334845508\">Pierre Dorion was clear about what DeBrincat brings<\/a> to the team. Dorion noted that &#8220;Alex&#8217;s acquisition brings immediate and additional firepower to our forward group. He&#8217;s a dynamic forward who&#8217;s a scoring threat to the opponent when in the attacking zone. He maintains great vision, has exceptional skill and a quality shot which helps him score from virtually any part of the ice.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Senators?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Senators<\/a> made a huge splash ahead of the 2022 Upper Deck <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NHLDraft?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NHLDraft<\/a>, acquiring Alex DeBrincat from the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NHLBlackhawks?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@NHLBlackhawks<\/a> in exchange for picks No. 7 and 39, plus a third-round selection in 2024. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NHLStats?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NHLStats<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2rEjcS2gxe\">pic.twitter.com\/2rEjcS2gxe<\/a><\/p>&mdash; NHL Public Relations (@PR_NHL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PR_NHL\/status\/1545148152306716674?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 7, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Dorion finally added that DeBrincat is a &#8220;consistent performer and an underrated playmaker who Senators&#8217; fans are certain to enjoy watching play in Ottawa.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DeBrincat Brings Scoring and Depth to a Young But Growing Senators&#8217; Team<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>DeBrincat could become a fixture in Ottawa. He has another season left on his three-year, $19.2 million contract. Once that expires, he&#8217;s eligible to become a restricted free agency. If the team does well, he&#8217;d be a huge part of its leadership core.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to hitting the 40-goal mark for the second time in his NHL career last season, DeBrincat also scored 78 points in 82 games. It was a big step for the Senators to bring him into the team; and, with it the Senators are officially telling the NHL world that they&#8217;re quite done with their rebuild. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Ottawa, the team is growing and expects to start winning much more often than it has recently. They are pulling together the tools for it. And, DeBrincat is one of the key resources. He&#8217;ll give the Senators a huge offensive boost both in five-on-five play and on the power play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Good luck to DeBrincat in Canada&#8217;s capital city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Related:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thehockeywriters.com\/senators-brady-tkachuk-potential-future\/\">Ottawa Senators\u2019 Brady Tkachuk: Building Block for the Future<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By trading for Alex DeBrincat, the Ottawa Senators are announcing to the NHL that they&#8217;re done rebuilding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[16,17],"class_list":["post-81","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ottawa-senators","tag-alex-debrincat","tag-pierre-dorion"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.9 -
