Well unless you are talking about brothers in the black sense...

Then you have Grant Fuhr, Freddie Brathwaite and Pokey Reddick... but that would be stupid just to have a play on the word brother....
There was also the three Plagers who played defense for the Blues in the late 60s or early 70s, all at the same time.

Brownie's clue doesn't say they all played for the Oil at the same time though ... there might have been only one or two on the team at the same tme.

The only two candidates I could come up with were the three Smiths ... but I really don't think Jason is a brother to Steve or Geoff ... and there have been three Browns that played for the Oil ... Dave, Kevin and Sean. But Sean didn't play for the Oil until the mid 90s, and he was a defenseman whereas Kevin and Dave Brown were forwards, so they don't fit the description either.

I'm thinking it's a trick question.
