The player.
WHO HE IS · LONG TERM
Connor Brown is the definition of a hard-earned NHL career, a former sixth-round pick who became a trusted veteran winger. He shines as a diligent facilitator and setup man rather than a pure sniper, with his career assist rate significantly outpacing his goals, earning him critical ice time (17.6 min/game) as a reliable two-way presence.
