What kind of volume the Detroit Red Wings top-six can provide this season?
The Detroit Red Wings face the daunting task of replacing 75 goals lost with the departures of key players like Daniel Sprong, David Perron, and Robby Fabbri.
However, new and returning stars aren't worried about filling the gap. Alex DeBrincat, who netted 27 goals last season, is optimistic, stating,
"I think we should be ready to play and hopefully ready to score a lot of goals."
Detroit's top lines look promising in training camp, with DeBrincat playing alongside captain Dylan Larkin and Lucas Raymond. Larkin and Raymond combined for 64 goals last season, creating a formidable top-six forward group.
Additionally, the second line of J.T. Compher, Patrick Kane, and Vladimir Tarasenko brings even more firepower. Kane, a proven 30-goal scorer, and Tarasenko, a multiple-time 30+ goal sniper, have the potential to reignite their offensive prowess.
These top-six forwards could easily surpass last season's combined 153 goals, ensuring Detroit stays competitive offensively.
