Connor Brown's contract has a cap hit of $775k. However, playing 10 games this year triggers a performance bonus of $3.25 million, which will impact next season's salary cap.
Despite his experience, Brown hasn't made a mark this season with no points in the games he's played. Unless there's a significant improvement in his performance soon, the Oilers could be tempted to get rid of him before he plays 10 games.
Connor Brown was acquired with the hope of him being a valuable asset in the top-six forward lineup. However, his performance so far hasn't been good enough. With several players outperforming him, Brown will need to step up in the upcoming games if he wishes to cement his position with the Oilers.
