CONNOR BROWN NEWS

Plucks apple Saturday Brown recorded an assist in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs.

Impact Brown has collected four points over his last five contests. The 30-year-old winger is starting to get involved in the offense more, as is linemate Adam Henrique. Brown has three goals, two assists, 33 shots on net and a minus-1 rating over 18 appearances. He's strong enough defensively to stick in the lineup, but fantasy managers will want to see either more offense or a larger role before considering him for their rosters.

Impact Brown has three points over his last two games in a rare burst of offense for the 30-year-old winger. Both of his goals Saturday came in the third period, and the first one stood as the game-winner. Brown is up to three tallies, one assist, 32 shots on net and a minus-1 rating through 15 appearances this season. He'll likely continue to play in a third-line role with no power-play time, so don't expect him to repeat this performance.

Hands out helper Brown logged an assist in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact This was Brown's first assist and second point of the campaign. The 30-year-old helped out on a Brett Kulak tally in the second period. In addition to his lack of offense, Brown has 27 shots on net over 14 games, but he's added just two hits, seven blocked shots and a minus-3 rating while playing in a bottom-six role. He's more of a defensive forward for the Oilers, and it's unlikely he'll score enough to be considered in the vast majority of fantasy formats.

Deposits goal in overtime win Brown scored a goal and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Flyers.

Impact Brown tied the game at 2-2 with a second-period tally. The winger has added seven shots on net over four contests this season while playing in a third-line role. Brown put up 12 points in 71 regular-season outings in 2023-24, though he had produced at least 28 points in six straight years from 2016-17 to 2021-22 before an ACL injury ended his 2022-23 campaign early. He may not reach those heights again, but Brown can be a decent middle-six forward who sticks in the lineup thanks to his defensive contributions.

Impact Brown will take a significant pay cut from the one-year, $4 million deal he played on last season in order to remain with the Oilers. For the Cup contenders, the 30-year-old winger certainly offers plenty of value as a bottom-six penalty killer, but he won't provide much in terms of fantasy production considering he managed just 12 points in 71 regular-season tilts last year.

Impact Brown scored for the first time since May 25, tallying the opening goal Tuesday at 5:30 of the first period. The winger hasn't made a huge impact this postseason, but he has six points, 13 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 17 contests in a bottom-six role. As evidenced by his goal Tuesday, he's a plus on the penalty kill for the Oilers, which has likely contributed to him keeping his spot in the lineup since early in the second round.
