Brown collected an assist in Monday's 4-1 victory over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Brown has tallied a point in back-to-back nights. He now has seven points in his last eight games. The longtime King has 28 points along with over 100 hits in 35 games this season. Brown continues to be a steal for many owners in 2017-2018. The American winger is on pace to set his highest scoring totals since the 2010-2011 campaign.

Brown tallied a goal and an assist in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over Ottawa.
EDGE Analysis
Brown scored the go-ahead goal with 3:28 left in regulation, but the visitors ended up tying the game once more before finally falling on a Drew Doughty tally in overtime. The 33-year-old Brown is having a renaissance season with 26 points in 30 games after failing to crack 40 since a 54-point campaign in 2011-12.

Brown posted a goal and an assist with one shot on goal in a 3-1 victory against the Blackhawks on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old is officially out of his late November slump, as he has scored three goals in the last five games. Brown has continued to produce despite not many shots on goal. He is averaging about 2.8 shots on net per game, but Brown already has 11 goals because of a 14.1 shooting percentage. That's bound to drop, but owners still have to be pleased that in early December, Brown is only three goals away from matching last season's total.

Brown scored his ninth goal of the season in a 2-1 shootout victory against the Ducks on Saturday night.
EDGE Analysis
It was a heck of a time for Brown to score his first goal in seven games, as the veteran tied the contest inside the final two minutes of the third period to send the matchup into overtime. Brown had just two assists in his prior seven games, but he's still off to a very strong start with nine goals and 20 points in 24 games. He also has a plus-7 rating, giving him his first positive plus/minus since 2013-14. Brown's 13.6 shooting percentage is bound to drop, but he is well on his way to passing his goal scoring totals from each of the last four seasons.

Brown scored another power-play goal during a 2-1 loss against the Sharks on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old has benefited all season from the man advantage, as half of his goals have come on the power play. Brown continues to average a point per game too; he owns eight goals and 17 points in 17 contests. However, there is a big cause for concern. Brown is currently averaging more than 20 minutes of ice time per game. He hasn't posted that kind of time on ice average since 2011-12, and last season, he played just 16:00 per contest. Brown could see a reduction in minutes over the next several months, and that could hurt his fantasy value.

Brown recorded a power-play goal in regulation and assisted on Nick Shore's game-winner in overtime Tuesday night, stunning the Ducks on the road.
EDGE Analysis
The New York native remains on a point-per-game pace and even in the likely event that he cools down, Brown should obliterate his totals from the last three years (27, 28 and 36 points, respectively) and possibly establish a new career high in that ever-so important fantasy category. The real difference this year is that he's been averaging 20:30 of ice time per contest, which is close to four-and-a-half minutes more than he had a season ago, plus he's converting scoring chances at a sturdy 14.3-percent clip. We wouldn't think about leaving him on the fantasy pine when the going has been this good for Brown.

Brown netted his fifth goal of the season and added three assists in Saturday's win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Brown had a fantastic outing on the top line with Anze Kopitar, firing six shots on goal and recording a plus-5 rating. He's been a very pleasant surprise thus far and becoming a fantasy asset for the first time in a long time. If Brown continues to skate on the top line and play on the power play, there's no reason to doubt he can keep producing. The veteran has 11 points and a plus-11 rating in seven games and is firing tons of pucks on net, so keep him rolling.

Brown lit the lamp twice on eight shots on goal and added an assist in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Flames on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Are we on the verge of a Dustin Brown renaissance? While the veteran has struggled the last few years, he has five points and 13 shots on net through three games this year. Sure, it's early, but this is definitely worth keeping an eye on.

Brown scored his first goal of the season, picked up an assist and dished out three hits in Saturday's win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Brown looked great on a line with Anze Kopitar, opening the scoring with a perfect snipe and throwing his body around all night. The veteran's production has dropped off in recent years after he had established himself as a 20-30 goal-scorer who racked up whopping PIM and hit totals. If Brown sticks on a line with Kopitar, he should be able to find twine at a decent rate this season. The 32-year-old is declining, but he still holds fantasy value -- especially when we see shades of his former self like we witnessed Saturday.

Brown scored a goal and added a helper in Saturday's loss to the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Brown continued to show he is a well-rounded asset by dishing out four hits and spending over four minutes on both power play and penalty kill. Nevertheless, the 32-year-old winger hasn't had a season over 40 points since 2011, and his cap hit of $5.875 million is troublesome for that dismal production. Hopefully this early preseason game is a good sign for Brown's upcoming season, where he is expected to slot into a first-line role again.
