Make no mistake about it — this season, with his first real, extended run of play in the NHL, was an up and down one for Brink. We saw him struggle at times for consistency in his own play, we can acknowledge that, but it’s also worth acknowledging that when you take a look at the season on the whole, on the macro level, Brink still grades out well enough, all things considered.
Remember back, if you will, to his Flyers debut after wrapping up his junior year at Denver and signing his Entry Level Contract back in 2022.
