What’s funny? Brown is unbelievable away from the puck. If he wasn’t he would have been waived this year.

How far behind is McDavid now from RNH? in terms of defensive awareness. I know McDavid has been good defensively this yearProbably Nugent Hopkins. Connor Brown is really good too but plays way less minutes.
You can't blame that Rangers fan, your own team board turned Brown into a meme last year even though he was not terrible.What’s funny? Brown is unbelievable away from the puck. If he wasn’t he would have been waived this year.
McDavid has always been solid his biggest issue has always been flying the zone early to cheat for offense. It forces our D to make tougher plays than they should have to. This is especially prevalent when they him and Draisaitl together. Drai and him together are a defensive disaster but when they are clicking the offense more than makes up for it. When separated they both play solid D but neither are as polished as Nuge.How far behind is McDavid now from RNH? in terms of defensive awareness. I know McDavid has been good defensively this year

Don't think Protas will take the next step? Lol that dude is the most underrated U23 Center in the gameNic Dowd maybe. Could end up being Lapierre.
Puck pursuit : O'ReillyO'Reilly or Sissons.
He was also one of, if not the best defensive forward in Ottawa before he was traded.What’s funny? Brown is unbelievable away from the puck. If he wasn’t he would have been waived this year.

San Jose will take him for a slight overpayment in picksI actually almost included Protas in my post.
So yeah put him in the conversation.
If someone only watched hockey from October 2023 - March 2024, they might actually believe you know a thing or two.
Probably Nugent Hopkins. Connor Brown is really good too but plays way less minutes
Not sure who it would be on the Canucks, Elias Pettersson or Dakota Joshua I think
Okay now your guys turn, feel free to talk about upcoming two way players or unsung heros of your team as well
What can I say? Brown is really good defensively. This is a guy who didn’t score a single goal until the 65th game of the season on a team with cup aspirations. He wasn’t kept around for his secondary scoring lol. Hes a tenacious checker and smart player. Great defensive stick and knows when to pressure guys. Henrique and Janmark are strong defensive guys too but brown to me was the anchor on that line and his PK work is unbelievable as well.Appreciate the insight, Mess.
Also, care to address the Connor Brown statement ?
