Edmonton Oilers right wing Connor Brown is riding a three-game point streak following Wednesday's 5-2 victory over Dallas. He extended his scoring run with an assist on Mattias Janmark's short-handed goal in the second period, which ended up being the game-winning marker. Brown had registered only one point in seven games this postseason before heating up in the Western Conference Final. He boasts one goal and three assists with six shots on goal, five blocks, five hits, and a plus-three rating through 10 appearances.
Edmonton Oilers right wing Connor Brown (groin) went through full practice on Friday and is on track to return to the lineup for Saturday's battle with the Lightning. He's been sidelined with a groin problem for six games. Brown has gone pointless in his first nine appearances as an Oiler, posting a minus-five rating. It's been an ugly start, but Edmonton has had a coaching change while he was on the shelf, and Kris Knoblauch has penciled in Brown for a top-line role on Saturday. Sam Gagner is dropping all the way down to the fourth line.
Edmonton Oilers right wing Connor Brown appeared to have suffered a lower-body injury in Thursday's 4-3 loss to Dallas, exiting the game after logging only 6:25 of ice time. He had two shots on goal and carried an even rating before calling it a night. With Brown linking up with his former junior teammate Connor McDavid in Edmonton, there were quite high hopes for the 29-year-old this season, but it's gotten off to a bad start for Brown. He's gone pointless through nine games with a minus-five rating. A period on the shelf would be another setback for Brown. His exit from the lineup would open up a spot on the third line, and Brown has also been part of the second power-play unit.
Connor McDavid Sees Connor Brown As "Great" Fit For Oilers
Edmonton Oilers center Connor McDavid is very excited to link up with Connor Brown, his former teammate from junior hockey. The two played together for the Erie Otters in the OHL and now find themselves back on the same team in the NHL after Edmonton signed Brown to a one-year, $4 million contract on July 1. "I think he's a great fit for the group," McDavid said this week. "I think he fits in perfectly in the room, on the ice, all that type of stuff." Brown has posted 216 points (90 goals, 126 assists) in 448 regular-season games, but he's been troubled by various injuries in recent seasons and was able to make just four appearances with Washington in 2022-23 because of a torn ACL. It might take a bit of time before he's back to his best again, but McDavid makes everybody around him better and Brown could be set for a big year if he can stick on the same line with his good friend.
Washington Capitals right wing Connor Brown has undergone reconstructive surgery to repair a torn ACL in his right knee, and he is set to miss six to eight months. Brown will sit out a seventh consecutive game Tuesday against Vegas and it sadly looks like he is done for the whole regular season. Washington had high hopes for him as Brown filled in for Tom Wilson (knee) on the top line at the start of the year, but he ended up going scoreless in four games before getting sidelined. Conor Sheary has taken over the right-wing spot on the first line, and he's been doing well, scoring four goals and recording three assists in 10 appearances this season.
Ottawa Senators winger Connor Brown has a nagging injury and won't play on Saturday against Montreal. The 28-year-old has been pretty ineffective as of late, so it's possible that he has carried the injury for quite a while. Brown boasts 10 goals and 39 points in 64 games for the season. He's been a regular in the top six and Brown's absence is set to open up minutes on a scoring line. Head coach D.J. Smith has yet to announce his lines for the game, so it remains to be seen who benefits from Brown's injury.
Ottawa Senators winger Connor Brown scored his fourth goal of the season in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Kings, finishing with three shots in total and two hits in nearly 22 minutes on the ice. Brown was one of the hottest goal-scorers in the league during the second half of last season, but he hasn't carried his form over to 2021-22. With that said, Brown has scored three of his goals in his past five appearances, so he's improved his sharpness in front of the net and could be ready to go on a goal-scoring surge.
Ottawa Senators winger Connor Brown, who had an eight-game goal streak cut a week ago, might've started a new one in Monday's 4-2 win over Calgary. He picked up his 15th marker of the campaign in the second period in a short-handed situation and added another one into an empty net to finish off the game. Josh Norris had a power-play goal and an assist in the game and Brady Tkachuk also scored. Brown has been among the deadliest goal-scorers in the league for nearly a month, with only Auston Matthews (12) and Brad Marchand (11) managing more goals since March 25. The 26-year-old can maintain his goal-scoring form during a four-game set against Vancouver which starts on Thursday. The Canucks are giving up a league-high 33 shots per game, and they are allowing over three goals a night (3.10).
Ottawa Senators winger Connor Brown finally had his goal streak cut in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to Winnipeg, but he still extended his point streak with a power-play assist on Josh Norris' 12th goal of the campaign. Brown scored in eight straight games, setting a franchise record. His nine-game point streak marks the longest by a Senator since Mark Stone had a 10-game run in 2017-18. Brown boasts 14 goals and 25 for the season in 44 games with 95 shots and a minus-11 rating. He will try to match Stone's feat on Saturday versus Montreal. The 26-year-old had two of the goals during his streak against the Canadiens.
Connor Brown Takes Seven-Game Goal Streak Into Next Week
Ottawa Senators winger Connor Brown has quietly been one of the most consistent goal-scorers in the NHL as of late and heads into next week on a seven-game goal streak. The 26-year-old has posted a new franchise record by scoring in seven consecutive games. He has added one assist as well during the streak, reaching 13 goals and 23 points for the year with 83 shots in 41 games. Brown has just three games next week, but plays twice in the first three days, facing Winnipeg both times, and his hot goal-scoring form currently makes him one of the best streaming options out there.
Ottawa Senators winger Connor Brown extended his goal streak to five games in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to Edmonton. He became only the third Senators player in the last 10 years to score in five consecutive outings. Josh Norris recorded Ottawa's second. Brown had only six goals for the season before starting the streak, so he's completely turned around his form. The 26-year-old is now on 21 points for the campaign in 40 games. His recent hot goal-scoring form has made him a popular fantasy pickup, and fantasy managers will be hoping that Brown can maintain his momentum in Thursday's rematch with the Oilers.
Ottawa Senators winger Connor Brown took his goal streak to four games with a two-point performance in Monday's 4-3 loss to Winnipeg. He completed the scoring in the game and also had an assist on a Ryan Dzingel goal. It was a two-point night for Dzingel as well. Brown also had a team-high five shots in the game and lead all Senators forwards in ice time with 21:19. The 26-year-old will look to extend his goal-scoring streak even further against Edmonton next. It's a decent-looking matchup against a team that hasn't done too well defensively as of late, allowing three goals per game across their past five outings.
