Connor Brown is entering his third full NHL season in 2018-19 and has established himself as two things:
1) A steady reliable third-line player who chips in with the occasional point, and plays just well enough to not be noticed for bad plays, but isn’t a highlight reel player by any means.
And
2) A popular player to put into trade proposals because he’s signed for a nice $2.1 million deal for the next two seasons, is still an RFA after that, and is a solid third liner who isn’t a risk out on the ice.
