I really don't think they are. Consider style and role alone. Not to mention that Glencross was notorious for checking out mentally for stretches of games. The majority of his points came in the 40% of the season he gave a ####. Once put on a contender in Washington he was lost because that kind of effort and attitude will not put you into big game situations.

Brouwer is the antithesis of a Glencross. 100% for all 82+, plays a physical and aggressive style, gets the hard-nosed goals that you need to win a game 7 against a team like the Blackhawks, and can be put anywhere in the lineup.

I just don't believe there is any real comparison to be made there, sorry.
