For Alex DeBrincat, who scored his ninth goal in seven games for the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday night at Little Caesars Arena, there’s nothing like the comfort of home.
The small forward from Michigan shined again in a 5-4 overtime loss to the Seattle Kraken. Last week’s first star in the National Hockey League leads the table in the net column.

Midway through the third period, DeBrincat made his presence felt on the power play. He allowed Joey Daccord to compromise on a bad move to achieve the goal. See above.
The encounter was also profitable for Dylan Larkin, who collected three points, including an assist for the 25-year-old sniper’s goal. The Wings captain now has 14 points on his record, including 10 assists.
Jordan Eberle made the breakthrough in extra time with his first goal of the season. Quebecer Joe Veleno also picked up his fourth win in defeat.
