    Question Dustin Brown playing with Kopi & Gabs?

    I can't believe I'm inquiring about Dustin Brown, but I've noticed he's playing on a line with Kopitar and Gaborik and top PP1 with them as well. My team in my signature has been racking up points but I'm a bit low in peripherals (hits/shots). So here are my questions:

    1. Will Brown stick on this line?
    2. Has anyone been able to watch Brown? Has he been playing well/does he look like the Brown of old?
    3. Do you think he'd be a decent addition to my team? If so, who would I drop (would prefer not dropping a C as centreman are hard to comeby in our league).

    Any input is greatly appreciated!!

    I've seen a lot of highlights of the Kings play since the start of the season and I have to admit that Brown has stood out in a good way for me. He looks like he has some jump so far and although he has only 2 assists, I like his usage right now. Your team looks pretty good so I'm not sure who I'd drop for him, but I'll definitely be keeping an eye on Brown for the next few games.

    I guess if they can turn their consecutive wins into something more then he'll be staying on that line. But it really is anyone's guess because the Kings are rarely consistent during the season so there could be more line shuffling to come.

    He's been on that line lots of times. Started there last year too. Started there when they first acquired Gaborik. He won't stick there, he doesn't look like the Brown of old, and don't bother with him unless you need hits.

    Ahh perhaps I was a bit too optimistic, but I must admit I will be keeping an eye on him. His shot totals are pretty respectful too (18 already) but I could use a good boost in HITS...

    Kings are struggling, have to try switching things up to get rolling. If he can stick, that would be awesome!

    Maybe try trading Hoffman or Hornqvist away for someone with similar value but more hits.

    I would (did) put Brown on the watch list for now. If Lucic heats up I dont think Brown will stay, so it depends on Brown performing and Lucic not.
