Alex DeBrincat misses practice today and may not be able to hit the ice tomorrow night.
The Detroit Red Wings managed to secure a point in last night's 5-4 overtime loss to the Seattle Kraken, extending their point streak to six games. On a brighter note, Alex DeBrincat maintained his impressive goal-scoring form by netting his 9th goal of the season. However, there is a downside as DeBrincat missed today's practice due to illness, raising concerns that he may not be in good enough health to play in tomorrow night's game.
DeBrincat scored his 9th goal in seven games
In last night's game, the Red Wings staged an impressive comeback in the third period, erasing a 3-1 deficit. This rally was fueled by goals from both Shayne Gostisbehere and Dylan Larkin, followed by a superb snipe from Alex DeBrincat, who notched his 9th goal and gave Detroit a 4-3 lead.
He missed today's practice and isn't guaranteed to play tomorrow
DeBrincat was conspicuously absent from today's practice due to not feeling well. At this moment, there is a chance that DeBrincat might not be in suitable condition to participate in tomorrow night's game against the Winnipeg Jets, but a re-evaluation is scheduled for the morning.
TL;DR (too long didn't read)
- The Detroit Red Wings mounted a furious comeback effort last night against the Seattle Kraken, storming back to re-take the lead after trailing 3-1 before ultimately falling in overtime
- Forward Alex DeBrincat stayed hot, scoring his 9th goal of the season in just his 7th game
- DeBrincat was absent from today's practice due to feeling under the weather, and it's not guaranteed that he'll be able to play tomorrow
Bottom Line: Get well soon!
The acquisition of DeBrincat has paid off tremendously for the Detroit Red Wings so far, as he's leading the rest of the National Hockey League in goals scored and total points.
We certainly hope that DeBrincat's ailment is minor and that he'll be able to play tomorrow night in front of the fans at Little Caesars Arena.
