I definitely expect Brouwer to do better. Last year was the worst of his career and he broke his finger. Remember the first few games of the season where he looked like the only guy actually trying?

If he repeats last year's performance I'll worry, but so far last season wasn't a trend it was an anomoly. Even come February ish he started looking better again, still wasn't putting up the points but making really good plays away from the puck
