Otters forward Alex DeBrincat confident in his abilities despite the knock on size
WINDSOR, Ont. — Alex DeBrincat has been told more than once he’s too small to succeed.
It’s a major reason why the 19-year-old waited so long to hear his named called at the 2016 NHL Draft, despite scoring 51 goals and 104 points in the year leading up to it.
“I think a lot of teams were worried if I could still do it at the next level,” DeBrincat said about dropping to the second round.
“In my mind I can and hopefully I will for a long time.”
