Brown agreed to a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Tampa Bay Lightning in the offseason and will now not be ready for the start of the 2023-24 season as he is out indefinitely due to an undisclosed injury. The 25-year-old towering centre had two goals, four assists, 18 SOG, eight PIMs and a -4 plus/minus in 30 injury plagued games with St. Louis in 2022-23 and will be hoping to crack the Lightning's roster when he returns to full health.
