Brown failed to pick up a point in four games with Boston but had three SOG, two PIMs, and a -2 plus/minus and has been reassigned to Providence (AHL) on Friday. The 31-year-old was signed to a one-year, $800,000 contract in the offseason and returns to the minors for the first time since he captained the Henderson Silver Knights back in 2020-21.
Brown failed to pick up a point in any of the three games he dressed in for the Bruins this season and has been assigned to Providence (AHL) on Wednesday. The 31-year-old veteran is in his eighth NHL season and will head to the AHL for the first time since he captained the Henderson Silver Knights (AHL) in 2020-21.
The NHL journeyman suited up for 61 games last season between the Philadelphia Flyers and Ottawa Senators while tallying 12 points (4G / 8A). Brown could once again see semi-regular playing time at the NHL level this season due to the Bruins' lack of center depth.
Brown split the 2023 campaign between the Flyers and the Senators, positioned 12 points (4G / 8A) across 61 games. Brown is strictly a fourth-line option but has the flexibility to play either centre or wing.
Brown has two goals, five assists, 44 SOG, 17 PIMs and a -6 plus/minus through 43 games this season with Philadelphia and has been traded to Ottawa for a 2023 sixth-round pick. Brown has played in 120 NHL games throughout his career, picking up eight goals and 19 points.
Patrick Brown has been recalled from the Lehigh Valley Phantoms (AHL) after he was assigned there for a rehab stint just recently. The 30-year-old has 12 points (6G/6A) through 77 career NHL games played prior to his debut Thursday.
Brown underwent back surgery in the offseason and is considered week-to-week, putting his status for the start of the season in doubt. Brown has resumed skating but has not been cleared for contact. If he misses time to start the season, look for Artem Anisimov (PTO) or Tanner Laczynski to take his spot as the fourth-line centre.
Brown has not played since January 8th due to an MCL sprain but will be back on the Flyers' fourth line on Monday. Brown has scored just one goal with three assists (four points) in 20 games with the Flyers this season.
Brown suffered an MCL injury vs. the Sharks on Saturday and will miss at least one month. Connor Bunnaman replaced Brown as the Flyers' fourth-line centre in Tuesday's practice.
Brown suffered a dislocated thumb vs. the Flames on Tuesday and is expected to miss at least a couple of weeks. Oskar Lindblom will replace him in the lineup on Thursday.
Brown found himself on the roster bubble in Vegas but gets a chance to crack the Flyers roster after being picked up off of waivers. With Kevin Hayes out to open the season, the Flyers are a little thin down the middle, which is why they added the 29-year-old Brown. He has just three points (2G / 1A) in 33 career NHL games with Carolina and Vegas.
