April 30 , 1966 inOttawa ,Ontario ) is a Canadian formerice hockey defenceman who played in the NHL from the mid 1980s to late 1990s.While in his prime, Brown could have been considered to be in the upper-echelons of NHL defensemen, his swift fall from the peak of his career ensured that he would be remembered for few of his on-ice performances.
Perhaps best known for scoring 15 points during the 1994 playoffs for the
Vancouver Canucks , eventually resulting in their second appearance in theStanley Cup Finals , many Vancouverites remember Brown more for his off-ice antics than his on-ice efforts.fact|date=September 2007During the 1995–1996 season, Jeff Brown was traded to the
Hartford Whalers .Overall, Brown had a solid career, with some stellar highlights, but in the end was unable to secure much of a reputation in the league other than as an unstable influence to teams that would otherwise have been competitive.
Brown who played parts of 13 seasons in the NHL, suited up for 6 different franchises. The
Quebec Nordiques , St. Louis Blues,Vancouver Canucks ,Hartford Whalers /Carolina Hurricanes , theToronto Maple Leafs and finally theWashington Capitals .Brown was a threat from the blue line for the St. Louis Blues, and in the 1992-1993 NHL season, scored 25 goals and added 53 assists for a career high 78 points.
