Beating the Oil would be a great way to end a career. Hope it happens

Pretty impressive that Brown has been able to stay effective for so long. Thought he was cooked around 2015. But I think he reinvented himself a bit and had quite the resurgence for a few years.

He had a hell of a career. I'll always have a soft spot for those Kings cup teams because of Sutter and Regehr.
The list of 2003 guys left playing gets a little shorter...

And for taking out the Canucks. That was the first year I lived in North Vancouver and it was so sweet.

He has to be in the top 10 for games played for a career, on only 1 team.

It makes me feel old that he's already 37.

He sure had a nice offensive rebound the last few seasons, I thought he was on his way out of the league years ago when his offense completely dropped off in his late 20s. Hell of a career anyway, and he could make it just a bit sweeter by beating the greasers in round 1.

Looking at that list, if you scratch off players who played for more than one team, no matter how many games they played with any team, then yes. For players who only played on one team, Dustin Brown is #9 for games played.

Hopefully, Monahan can do the same, even if it's not with the Flames

You can use this list here and sort by number of games, His 1295 would put him at 9th as stated above. He's just not on the list because he isn't retired yet.

Wonderful.

Hopefully this motivates the Kings to absolutely smoke the Oilers.
