Alex Debrincat has caught the attention of the front office and the coach with his play on ice, but his leadership seems to have caught their attention as well. He is expected to be announced as one of the alternate captains for the season, with Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews returning as the full-time captain of the team.
He was a top-ten talent in his draft class, but his size turned teams away. The Blackhawks picked him up in the second round and what a steal it has been. Debrincat is among the top snipers of the league, but he can also pass and even throw his body around.
