Former Blackhawk, turned Red Wings star forward Alex DeBrincat makes the New Jersey Devils pay on Thursday night following a awful turnover in a head to head clash between the two rivials

The New Jersey Devils clashed off against the red hot Detroit Red Wings, who have former Blackhawk stars Alex DeBrincat and Patrick Kane, AKA 'showtime'. The two share the Red Wings' top line together, with team captain and star forward Dylan Larkin centering the two- a true all-American talent line.

Kane and DeBrincat may have been separated on the powerplay lines, which drew some controversy- but it clearly worked out for the better as Alex DeBrincat has found a new route to success, showcasing it against the New Jersey Devils.

Rookie defensemen Luke Hughes may have been a Calder trophy nominee for the 2024-25 season, but he still lacks defensive capabilities at the NHL level, especially against high end players like Alex DeBrincat.

DeBRINCAT! What a smart keep at the blue line to stay onside before ripping home the go ahead goal!

Just like that, the Red Wings lead

How fast this game went from dismal to a 2-1 Red Wings lead. DeBrincat gets the goal. New Jersey has to be livid they are behind after dominating almost the entire period.
