Brown netted a shorthanded goal in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Panthers in Game 5.
Brown scored for the first time since May 25, tallying the opening goal Tuesday at 5:30 of the first period. The winger also made an impact under similar circumstances in Game 4 -- with the Oilers shorthanded in the first period, Brown drove to the net, setting up Mattias Janmark and establishing a 1-0 lead Saturday. The 30-year-old Brown has six points, 13 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 17 playoff contests in a bottom-six role. As evidenced by the last two outings, he's a plus on the penalty kill for the Oilers, which has likely contributed to him keeping his spot in the lineup since early in the second round.
