If Brouwer was making the same money or less than Stewart, not a single knowledgeable poster would be claiming that Stewart is a better player than Brouwer.
Its not like Brouwer is really out performing him offensively 64-5-14-19 vs. 49-9-4-13 and that is with the much better ice time, linemates and PP opportunities that Brouwer gets. Neither one is any good defensively or really use their size physically on a consistent basis.
It isn't Brouwer fault that GG over plays him but on the Flames at least with Stewart he is likely to be used in a role that makes sense for his ability.
If they cost the exact same in salary I would much rather have Stewart in the line-up over Brouwer.
