Why wouldn't we want to pay him?

If he fits into the top 2 line sure, but does he have a spot there?

Yeah, I had no intention of trading brown with my post. my only point was if Sheary is getting 3M after the season he had, and is closer to ufa, that those saying Brown will cost that much are definitely way off. I see Brown more in the 1.75-2.25M (3) deal area. And we can't use hymans contract because the leafs were also buying ufa years.

Cue MiB blog on how sheary contract a good sign for leafs trying to extend brown.

Brown is worth more then that he's getting at least 2.25 mil. He's a 20 goal rookie, strong defensively hard worker good pk. We're not going to get him for free.

He scored 20 goals last year while playing shut down role, could argue that was the 2nd line. who cares what line is named anyways. More important how they produce.

Totally forget about him, which is unfortunate.

Trade him for a young d with a lot of upside, let someone else pay him.
Or JVR, Brown and a 1st for Doughty

Nino may be one of the most underrated guys in the league. He started slowly but he's a top quality player now.

Minny has a great deal for themselves there...
