Detroit Red Wings winger Alex DeBrincat potted a pair of power-play goals in Monday's 4-3 home loss to the Ducks. Both of his strikes came in the third frame when Detroit finally made the game close after dropping into a 4-0 hole early on. Playing on his 26th birthday, DeBrincat reached 15 goals and 28 points for the campaign. He's done well in Motown, leading the team in points, but nine of his goals came in the first seven games of the season, and the Red Wings have had a bumpy ride without DeBrincat's contributions in front of the net.

Despite being unhappy with his situation, DeBrincat still produced a decent season with 66 points in 82 games and even posted a new career high with 39 assists.

It's been a special run from DeBrincat, and he will now have a chance to match his career-best scoring streak in Sunday's meeting with Minnesota.

Ottawa Senators left wing Alex DeBrincat could miss his first game of the season Monday versus the Ducks after he was absent from the morning skate. Based on head coach D.J. Smith's comments, he is either banged up a bit or dealing with an illness, and the team officially regards DeBrincat as a game-time decision.
