'This is somewhere I really want to be, so I was really happy to stay put.' Leafs' Connor Brown relieved to have survived NHLTrade Deadline, writes lukefoxjukebox. (Presented by CircleKOntario)

Coming off 20-goal rookie campaign in the summer of 2017, after providing a stream of defensively responsible shifts for the team he grew up rooting for, Brown re-signed without much fight as an RFA for three seasons at a $2.1 million average annual value.

"You’re aware of it that you’re out there, but it’s been a long process for me in particular being here. This is somewhere I really want to be, so I was really happy to stay put," Brown said. Under a tight cap, it’s difficult to pay more than $2 million for a fourth-line winger, and that’s where Brown slots in with this group when everyone is healthy.
