I know what you mean but they signed brown on d to a 3 year deal. He’s going to hold people accountable and show people how tough they are.

Even on the third pairing, brown will get ahead of any physical shenanigans with his on ice and on bench presence.

No need to worry about toughness.



Wait what? Waived? 4d chess. 3 year contract so that he can be called up or sent down for the next 3 years? Brilliant. And one less contract to worry about. It’s easier to manage 3 vacant contracts than 4 amirite?
