My favorite is when I would use a google search for something, and several of the top results would be posts detailing the exact question I have, with the only responses being "just google it" and the post locked/closed to further responses.
Yeah, I'm all for it. The Wings could definitely use some top end scoring, and he seems like an excellent fit. It'd be cool if they could snag Konecny, too.
Agreed. Every draft is different, and hindsight is 20/20, but if you go back through the 1st round draft results over the last decade or so, it's a pretty mixed bag. Some elite players, some all-stars, some guys who are role players but not stars, and a surprising number of busts who never made it. I'm not in favor of trading the entire farm away, but a measured approach of sending a couple prospects and/or draft picks away for a guy who has a fairly proven track record of success isn't necessarily a bad thing. DeBrincat's a goal scorer, he's from the Detroit area, and he's still pretty young. Probably has a lot of hockey ahead of him if he stays healthy. I say go for it.
I'd be happy with either DeBrincat or Konecny, but lean toward DeBrincat. Ross Colton could be a sneaky good acquisition if he can be gotten for cheap. He gets bottom six minutes for Tampa but I suspect he could be a decent middle six forward if given more opportunity.

Good find!
I lazily tried asking Bing Chat to write a python script like this but nothing it wrote worked. It even made up fake APIs to do it. Kinda funny.
