Metropolitan Division team submits trade offer for Alex DeBrincat
During his '32 Thoughts' article on Sunday, Sportsnet insider Elliotte Friedman revealed that the Philadelphia Flyers have sent a legit offer to the Chicago Blackhawks for 24-year-old forward Alex DeBrincat.
The Farmington Hills (Michigan) native isn't a stranger to playing in Pennsylvania. During his junior hockey days, he played for the Erie Otters in the OHL, alongside Connor McDavid for a season and Dylan Strome.
Later in the article, Friedman says that one player told him that it would make sense to move DeBrincat now. The Blackhawks are in for a lengthy rebuild and DeBrincat can become an unrestricted free agent in two years, it would be ideal for Chicago to move him now and receive assets to aid in their rebuild.
DeBrincat had a career year in 2021-22, tallying 78 points (41 goals, 37 assists), nineteen penalty minutes and was a minus-thirteen. He has one-year remaining on his contract worth $6.4 million and will become a restricted free agent in July 2023.
