Ottawa Senators first-round pick Logan Brown goes down his own route to NHL

BUFFALO — Jeff Brown had a hard time wiping the smile off his face.

In his role as the Ottawa 67’s GM/head coach, it’s his job to draft and develop players to help them pursue their dream of getting to the NHL.

But Friday at the First Niagara Center, he played the role of proud father.

And, it meant a lot to Brown, an Ottawa native, that the hometown Senators moved up a pick in Round 1 of the NHL draft to select his son Logan Brown, a centre from the OHL’s Windsor Spitfires, who isn’t short on size at 6-foot-6 and has the skills that could eventually make him a top-two centre.
