The former Chicago Blackhawks duo of Patrick Kane and Alex DeBrincat both ended up on the Detroit Red Wings.
Well, both of them can reach career milestones this year while being in Detroit.
Patrick Kane could hit 1,300 points this year.
Kane, 35, currently sits 16 points away from that, at 1,284 points in 1,230 career games.
The Buffalo, New York native was selected first overall in the 2007 NHL Draft by the Blackhawks.
Right now, he sits third on the all-time points list by an American player behind Mike Modano and Brett Hull.
Alex DeBrincat could strike 500 points this season.
DeBrincat, 26 years old, played five seasons with the Blackhawks and had only one season below 50 points, but that was a shortened season for him.
Alex currently sits at 440 career points in 532 games played in his career, needing only 60 to get halfway to 1,000.
