Mike Brown: Released from PTO
Mike Brown was released from his tryout by the Blue Jackets on Wednesday, James Mirtle of the Globe and Mail reports.Brown made 58 appearances last season for the Sharks and Canadiens, but was only able to tally five points while averaging a meager 7:13 of ice time. In terms of fantasy, the winger's best contribution comes in the form of PIM, as he spent 90 minutes in the sin bin last year.

Blue Jackets' Mike Brown: Will attend camp on PTO
Mike Brown signed a professional tryout agreement with the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday, Chris Johnston of Sportsnet reports.Brown is likely just a placeholder with Columbus missing five forwards due to the World Cup of Hockey. The winger is 39 years old and recorded a meager five points in 58 contests last season; the veteran's main fantasy value came from his 90 PIM and 120 hits, but outside of those categories, his contributions are nearly nil.

Canadiens' Mike Brown: Plays Saturday
Mike Brown (upper body) had two hits, two blocked shots and two shots on goal in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Rangers. He had left the Habs' previous game due to the injury.Montreal was officially eliminated from the playoffs with the loss, so we'll see if that reality has any impact on how head coach Michel Therrien chooses to use his vetarans vis-a-vis the young forwards on the roster. Brown has been in the active lineup most nights and gives an honest effort, which carries some weight with the coach. If he continues to get ice time and fantasy owners can use Brown's style -- the nine-year veteran has 23 PIM and 51 hits in 12 games with Montreal -- you'll get someone who doesn't hold back and is motivated to play for his next contract.

Canadiens' Mike Brown: Dealing with upper-body injury
Mike Brown left Thursday night's game against Detroit early with an upper-body injury, Hockey Inside Out reports.Brown took part in Friday's optional practice, but his status for Saturday's game against the Rangers has not been confirmed. The 30-year-old, who was the first star in Tuesday's win over the Ducks, brings some value in tough play. Since joining the Habs 11 games ago, Brown has 23 minutes in penalties.

Canadiens' Mike Brown: Has ultra-rare multi-point game
Mike Brown scored a goal and added an assist in just 7:42 on the ice in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Ducks.Well, that's uncommon, to say the least. Brown had only three points in 53 games coming into Tuesday's action, but if you somehow bet the house on him scoring his second goal of the year -- not to mention another point to boot -- you'd have won a whole row of mansions. The 36-year-old enforcer's fantasy value is typically limited to hits and PIM, and he doesn't even rack up too many of those anymore.

Canadiens' Mike Brown: Claimed from Sharks
Mike Brown was claimed off waivers from the Sharks by Montreal on Monday, TSN's Bob McKenzie reports.The enforcer had stuck around in San Jose for a while, but it seems to be time for the NHL's best mustache to move on to different pastures.

Sharks' Mike Brown: Is a scratch Tuesday
Mike Brown will be scratched from the lineup Tuesday against Colorado, reports Kevin Kurz of CSN Bay Area.Brown will come out with Dainius Zubrus getting fully healthy. Brown's fantasy utility remains very limited. Even if you're just looking for someone who can deliver penalty minutes, there are likely better options out there. Brown isn't in the lineup consistently, and when he is, he skates some of the lowest minutes in the league.
