Connor Brown is a tough guy among tough guys. The 28-year-old right winger played a vital role in the Senators' 4-1 victory over the Flames on Thursday night, picking up a goal and a pass. He also finished the game with a total playing time of 19 minutes 28 seconds and a +3 differential, which earned him the second star of the match.
The most impressive thing about it is that this same Brown had a little scare during the warm-up period, while he had a puck in his face. In fact, the former Maple Leafs was diagnosed with a broken jaw later that evening, and will even have to leave for an indefinite period!
So this is another proof of what hockey players can endure as pain, and what they can achieve under the adrenaline during a game. The absence of Brown, on the other hand, will probably hurt the senses, since it is an important part of the offensive of the formation.
Brown's two-point tally brought his score to five goals and 19 points in 26 games, the team's fourth-best production so far this season.
