Waived: JT Brown- TB

[JoVel]

This guy literally just tweeted about playing Fortnite and PUBG on console and then is waived? Bolts don’t like gamers?
Brown is the typical “he’ll get claimed” guy that goes thru waivers and spends the rest of the year in AHL

He has a Twitch and has been streaming there every now and then for quite some time.

 

[xECK29x]

My first thought. Doesn’t add much offense but he’s s veteran and would be more experienced than what we have.

He has to be better then Chimera

He has to be better then Chimera

Every time I see JT Brown he’s always hustling and playing with energy. If he can kill penalties and play responsible defense he’s worth it.

 

[JoVel]

He's really tough and a good fighter for someone his size. Besides that he doesn't really bring much. He'll be most noticeable when he loses his helmet in a fight and you'll start wondering why would a human being get a haircut like that.

 

[Rschmitz]

He's very quick, willing to get dirty, great forechecker. Other than that he'll surprise you with his shot but he rarely puts himself in areas to provide offense, no offensive upside, and there are better options in the defensive zone.

 

[Bronson]

Can't be worse than Chimera. Can Brown play center?

 

[More 2004]

JT hasn't had the best year but I still do believe that he is a good player. I hope he sticks some place. Very nice guy as well.

 

[DJN21]

Sabres...come on downnnn

 

[FinnLightning26]

Meh, I wouldn't lose any sleep if he gets claimed. He doesn't bring anything other than hustle and an occasional fight. The guy has permafrost hands.

 

[Cyclones Rock]

I hear Syracuse is just lovely this time of the year.

 

[Legionnaire11]

Hands of stone, but would be a great guy for the Sabres 4th line.

 

[Kevin27NYI]

Kulemin out for the year, Cizikas, Ladd and Bailey hurt. Let's make a claim.

 

[Telos]

It's sad because I have been watching his Twitch streams every now and then but not surprising given his performance on the ice...

 

[Roo Mad Bro]

I remember wanting him so badly when he was a college FA. I was in class when I checked twitter and saw he picked TB. Was not happy.

 

[EastonBlues22]

We have a politics forum for those who want to talk politics. Let's not bring that into here.

If you don't know where that is, PM me and I will provide a link.

I'm a QU grad and got to know Peca. Great, great guy.

What undergrad did you do?

 

[SLAPSHOT723]

What undergrad did you do?

I was in the business school.

 

[AndreRoy]

It’s about time. Wanted him gone at the beginning of the year. He brings nothing but effort and energy and there are plenty of guys in Syracuse who can do that while having actual upside. Time for Peca or Erne to get a shot.

Lucky what are you doing now?

 

[RDTBay4]

JT is a great guy. He does tons of volunteer work and is always out in the community. I hope we're able to keep him in the organization, but if not I wish him the best. His wife just had their first child not too long ago as well.

Advertising in NYC.

What have you advertised so far? Anything big?

 

[SEALBound]

I would be quite shocked if he got claimed to be honest.

 

[DFC]

He could be a solid player on a bad team. A "step in the right direction" player. Hustles, seems to be liked by his teammates. If he had average hands, he'd be a very good player. Great wheels. Probably TB's second fastest player. Third at worst.
