Towards the end of the 1993/94 season Brown was given to the Vancouver Canucks on March 21, 1994 along with Bret Hedican and Nathan LaFayette in exchange for Craig Janney . After a year and a half, Brown left the Canucks and got a contract with the Hartford Whalers , with whom he played until 1997.
