I think Brown goes to Edmonton this offseason.
He probably will be a victim of the cap so yes.One can only hope.
And yes, Brown is easily our worst forward.
Okay here.I think you should check Brown's ice time.
Fair enough, but that wasn’t part of the question.Now factor in their $800k salaries to his $2.1m. We are in a cap crunch, a 4th liner That’s better than some other 4th liners is negligible at best
How on earth is he better than Ennis and Moore. They're faster, better shot, better stickhandling, better hockey IQ, more confidence.inb4 another useless babcock hate thread
He's better than Ennis and Moore, imo.
Pretty good. Here's how I'd do it:
Tier 1: Matthews, Marner, Tavares
Tier 2: Kadri, Kapanen, Nylander, Johnsson, Hyman
Tier 3: Marleau, Ennis (Moore might be here in future)
Tier 4: Moore, Goat, Petan, Brown
It used to be Lindholm by far. I guess I could see Brown as the worst, but I don't think he's as worthless. It's more because someone has to be the worst

Brown and Hyman began their careers on the same starting line and one has improved every year at various aspects and the other looks like he’s getting worse by the day. Brown’s not a natural athlete and he’s not really built well for a bottom six role either, but isn’t skilled enough to be placed into a top 6 job. He may be a good second line stop gap on a weaker club. But on Toronto he’s somewhat orphaned. Too bad for him. In any other era he would have been a serviceable Leaf.
Is he good at PK? Our PK is #16.I dont dislike Brown but he's looked somewhat out of place. Good at p.k. thats about it . For making twice as much as guys like Ennis, Moore you would expect his presents to be felt a little bit more .
Did you not compare him to Hyman?Okay here.
2016-2017 - 16:12 average ice time , 20 goals 16 assists for 36 points
2017-2018 - 15:01 average ice time , 14 goals 14 assists for 28 points
2018-2019 - 14:15 average ice time , 5 goals , 18 assists for 23 points
Who would think, less ice time would mean less points?
So is that all Browns doing that they're 16th on the pk ?Is he good at PK? Our PK is #16.
Nah. He's about average at goals and expected goals against. He's also bad at blocking shots and taking the puck away. Marner and Kapanen seem pretty good though. Lindholm was really badIs he good at PK? Our PK is #16.
Our PK is 16th. His role is not making the PK better. If our PK was #1 and he was big part of it you might say he adds value.So is that all Browns doing that they're 16th on the pk ?
Im not saying he's a born again Jere Lehtinen out there killing penalties but in contrast to doing anything else major him playing short handed is probably his best suit
he might be.
thing is, I think I blame babcock for brainwashing him into stopping even trying to create any offense out there, and just gudproing it up instead.
brown consistently tried to create with the puck when he was a rookie. we never see that anymore.
Well since he's currently on the active roster i guess he has to assume some type of responsibility being apart of the team .Our PK is 16th. His role is not making the PK better. If our PK was #1 and he was big part of it you might say he adds value.
He sucks 5 on 5, and his presence doesn't elevate our PK. Not enough for $2.1 million AAV
