The NHL SAN JOSE'S MIKE BROWN OUT WITH INJURY Former Michigan forward Mike Brown hasn't been a big numbers guy in his career, but he is a valuable piece of an outstanding franchise in San Jose. The Sharks will be without one of their quicker players for some time after he suffered a lower body injury Dec. 9 against Edmonton, just six games after his return from an upper body injury. "This is crazy," Sharks forward An- drew Desjardins told The San Jose Mer- cury News when asked about the injury to his linemate Brown. "It seems like it's a revolving door with guys getting hurt." Brown reportedly fell awkwardly into the boards while trying to com- plete a check and needed to be helped off the ice and into the Sharks' dressing room. He'll be out for a while, coach Todd McLellan reported. "He has an energy about him as an individual that is always high," McLel- lan said. "He's on his toes, he's quick, he gets on people, he finishes checks. Even if he misses the attempt, it stirs things up a little bit." The Edmonton game was Brown's sixth straight after missing 22 contests from mid-October to late November with a hand injury. The Sharks were 7-1 this season in games in which Brown has dressed and 8-10-4 with- out him, The Mercury News reported Dec. 10. "He just came back and to see him go down again … what a tough guy," Desjardins said of Brown. "How strong he was and how he didn't make a big scene and didn't make a big deal. I guess that's the nature of the game, injuries."
