Detroit Red Wings reportedly close to extension with Alex DeBrincat
Alex DeBrincat is the Detroit Red Wings' leading scorer and in line to become the highest-paid player on the team.
The Detroit Red Wings are reportedly on the verge of extending a deal with forward Alex DeBrincat, according to reports from Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman. The contract extension would reportedly be worth around $13 million per season over a span of seven years, making DeBrincat the highest-paid player on the team. DeBrincat, who is currently in the final year of his contract, has proven himself to be a valuable asset to the team, scoring a league-leading 40 goals last season.
Despite the Red Wings' recent 5-4 overtime loss to the New Jersey Devils, this potential extension represents a significant off-ice victory for the team.
