I hope the beats didn't spend too much time writing feel good stories about Wilson making the team.
I caught one who cut and paste his 'Who is Garrett Wilson?' story into a 'Who is Patrick Brown?' story at the last minute. Unfortunately, he left Wilson's OHL bio information and enforcer status in the article. Sloppy work, Jamey... darn that waiver wire.
What The? Who Is The Flyers New Center Patrick Brown?
"This native of Michigan in Brown is not afraid to stick up for his teammates. That is what separates him from a lot of players, but he is skilled n the same token. Brown’s scoring abilities may have not of translated to the NHL level from his Junior days where he tallied 40 goals and 46 assists for the Owen Sound Attack, but he is still a leader.
Wilson is one that can pot a big goal at times. He has tallied 95 goals, and registered 119 assists in 440 AHL games played."
And how can you do a bio piece on Patrick Brown without noticing he looks exactly like his father, a former Devil checker, Doug Brown, and a pretty good player in his own right.
However, he's one of Hayes' best buds, so he's going to play.
Also funny watching the beats speculate, based on AV's drivel about starting with 20 players to save cap space, that they might take Wilson on the road trip, without realizing they can't sign him to an NHL contract without losing one - Brown is #50 acc to people on here.
