Oilers' Connor Brown: Posts assist in win
Connor Brown notched an assist in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Kraken.Brown has six helpers over his last six outings. He has appeared on the top line for a few games, but his 19:24 of ice time Saturday made it look like more than just an on-paper designation. That makes Brown an interesting option in fantasy. He's at 19 points, 55 shots on net, 21 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 39 appearances while seeing nothing more than traces of power-play time. If he continues to see top-line usage, he should be rostered in more fantasy formats, as any proximity to Connor McDavid is typically a good thing for most players.

Oilers' Connor Brown: Provides two more helpers
Connor Brown notched two assists and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-1 win over Utah.Brown has taken the season of giving literally -- he has five helpers over his last four games. Going back to Dec. 12, he's racked up three goals and seven assists over nine contests. At least to begin Tuesday's game, he was on the top line at even strength. Brown had been in a third-line role for much of the campaign, but even a part-time gig alongside Connor McDavid makes a player worth a look in fantasy. Brown is up to 18 points, 53 shots on net, 20 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 37 appearances. His usage will be worth monitoring in the coming days and weeks.

Oilers' Connor Brown: Tallies in loss

The 30-year-old winger has scored in three straight games, adding two assists, four shots on net and a plus-5 rating in that span. It's tough to trust any depth forward for the Oilers, but Brown is worth a look as a streaming play for the rest of the week as Edmonton hosts Boston, San Jose and Ottawa prior to the holiday break. He has surpassed last year's point total (12 in 71 games) with six goals, seven assists, 52 shots on net and a plus-5 rating in just 31 appearances this season.

Oilers' Connor Brown: Scores, assists Saturday
Connor Brown recorded a goal and an assist in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights.Brown has posted back-to-back multi-point performances, but as productive as he has been in that two-game stretch, the 30-year-old winger can't be relied upon for sustained production in most fantasy formats. Brown has 12 points (five goals, seven helpers) in 30 games, but his lack of consistency on a game-to-game basis in a fourth-line role limits his fantasy upside considerably.

Oilers' Connor Brown: Records multi-point effort Thursday
Connor Brown registered a shorthanded goal and an even-strength assist in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Wild.Brown found the back of the net when the Wild were on the power play less than two minutes into the second period, and his goal gave Edmonton a 3-1 lead. He also set up the final goal in the late stages of the third period, courtesy of a Derek Ryan tip-in. This was Brown's third multi-point effort of the season. However, he hasn't been a consistent source of scoring for the Edmonton Oilers, and when factoring in his fourth-line role, he shouldn't carry a lot of fantasy upside going forward, even if he turned a few heads with his play in this contest.

Oilers' Connor Brown: Generates assist in win
Connor Brown notched an assist, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche.Brown failed to score a goal over the last nine games of November, but he had four assists and 10 shots on net in that span. The 30-year-old defensive winger is up to eight points, 42 shots on net, 13 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 24 outings this season. He's been playing on the second line at even strength, and while his offense has improved in that role, he'll likely slip down the lineup once Viktor Arvidsson (undisclosed) or Zach Hyman (undisclosed) return.

Oilers' Connor Brown: Plucks apple Saturday
Connor Brown recorded an assist in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs.Brown has collected four points over his last five contests. The 30-year-old winger and linemate Adam Henrique have been more involved offensively lately. Still, Brown has three goals, two assists, 33 shots on net and a minus-1 rating over 18 appearances. He's strong enough defensively to stick in the lineup, but fantasy managers will want to see either more offense or a larger role before considering him for their rosters.
