Recalled/Assigned: Brown called up on an emergency basis.

[HarrisonFord]

Finally! I've been waiting a long time to see this kid with the big club. I think he's going to be an important part of the future Leafs

 

[Leaf Lander]

Good luck kid!

 

[Macallan18]

Thrilled to see Brown, poor Komarov!!

 

[Atomos2]

Looks like he's going to be playing low end minutes tonight. With the way the lines have played recently, no point in disrupting them too much.

I can't believe he's not playing with Nylander. After watching how they dominated that game against Buffalo in preseason and the kind of roll Brown has been on in the A, putting him with plugs like Smith and Michalek is just sad.

 

[WTFMAN99]

With luck he will play his way up the line in the game.

Ditto, I would like to see some skill with Nylander.

Skilled players need to play with skilled players.

Almost any time I see a new Leafs line...I feel ill. Rather see a kids line and hope he gets promoted for his effort soon!

 

[diceman934]

Good for Connor. I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do. This is the kid nobody has believed in at any level, and his work ethic has pulled him through. I hope he makes it.

Babcock will love him....hard work and skill.

 

[burpsalot]

His mother has Irish roots, good day for him to be called up.

 

[thewave]

Babcock will love him....hard work and skill.

Hope he takes off without any stutter. The guy should have been on the team this year and I really want him to succeed.

 

[TLeafsFan]

Shoutout to SEER for the highlight vid!

 

[Liminality]

Definitely a guy i'll be rooting for. He's paid his dues and deserves a long look.

 

[I Believe]

Yessssss.

Was only a matter of time for him. Incoming fan favorite for sure

 

[Mugzy97]

hey, another reason to watch a game

 

[The Examiner]

This isn't a big surprise. I think most of us figured he would be the next guy up. Hopefully he gets in tonight because he deserves it.

Looks like he'll be playing with Michalek and Smith. Babcock should just put him in Komarov's spot. If he plays well enough, Babcock may move him up. He should get 10-12 minutes so let's hope he makes the best of it.

Great work by brown over the past 4 years pays of. When he was 14-15, I bet he himself doubted having an nhl career. Now he is set to make his debut and is a top 50 nhl prospect. Hope to see him and willy along with Hyman form s line sometime.

I really wouldn't be so optimistic about Hyman long term. It's not impossible but we've seen so little and some of the intensity is already fading.

 

[deletethis]

I'm really rooting for this prospect. However unlike prospects like Nylander, Soshnikov, Kapanen, Hyman and Leipsic he may not have NHL legs. He should be very good on an NHL power play.

 

[crump]

Brown plays too hard not to move up the lineup tonight.

 

[SprDaVE]

Lines might have changed since practice:

 

[Jack Bauer]

What a silly system this is...."emergency" call ups almost every game...no wonder someone like Lou Lamoriello is able to find holes in these systems.

 

[HarrisonFord]

Lines might have changed since practice:

lets see another first tonight!

 

[saltming]

I hope leo take a Lou day!

 

[Atomos2]

 

[SprDaVE]

I hope leo take a Lou day!

Babcock said that if these were playoff games he would have probably played but they won't take any chances tonight.

Leo is banged up and may not play. Conner may not play if leo is in. Hence the emergency call up.
