Matt Brown will be just fine..... but there is absolutely no question that a year playing Junior A in Truro under Shawn Evans would do a world of good for his game. He'd play a lot, and learn even more. Andrew MacDonald and Zach Sill are two prime examples.

If Matt Brown is only as good as Zack Sill at 19 then he was a waste of 1st round pick and whatever promises he was given.

In Moncton Brown practices almost everyday ... while in Jr A it is typically twice a week. He plays a 70 game season here while in the MJAHL he plays something like 54 games. Here he plays against the best Jr aged players in eastern Canada ... while in Jr a he plays against guys that don't fit that description. Here he plays for a Coach that has NHL experience ... in Truro he plays for a Jr A coach.

humm.. ok here s a stupid question.

could he not practice with the WC whenever they arn,t practicing or playing in Truro, and practice and play with Truro.

I,m not saying this would be best for him I was just wondering, it would give him the ice time some people say he needs.

Cats practice in the afternoons most days ... how much schooling would he get to do driving back and forth to Truro ... 1:45 each way. He might as well be here.
