Insider reveals two remaining teams in the Alex DeBrincat sweepstakes

It appears that we're getting close to seeing the Ottawa Senators trade restricted free agent forward Alex DeBrincat, who doesn't want to remain with the organization long-term.

During 'The Jeff Marek Show' on Tuesday, the Sportsnet insider revealed which two teams were still in the Alex DeBrincat sweepstakes. Those two teams are - the Detroit Red Wings and the New York Islanders.


There have been teams that were in the mix to acquire DeBrincat, but dropped out for various reasons. According to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman, one of the teams that is no longer in the running for DeBrincat is the Vegas Golden Knights.



DeBrincat, 25, had a solid year with the Senators, but took a slight step back in terms of point production when compared to his final season in Chicago. In 82 games with Ottawa, the Farmington Hills, Michigan native put up 66 points (27 goals, 39 assists), 45 penalty minutes and was a minus-31.
