Sean Brown (born November 5, 1976 in Oshawa , Ontario ) is a Canadian ice hockey player who last played as a defender at the EC KAC .

Career

Brown played for the Belleville Bulls during his junior years in the Ontario Hockey League . Brown was selected 21st in the first round of the 1995 NHL Entry Draft by the Boston Bruins . A year later he moved to the Sarnia Sting within the OHL .

Even before his first NHL mission, he was exchanged for the Edmonton Oilers along with Mariusz Czerkawski and a first-round draft right for goalkeeper Bill Ranford . From the 1996/97 season , Brown played six years for the Edmonton Oilers, but was also often used in their farm team , the Hamilton Bulldogs , in the AHL in the first two seasons . In March 2002 he moved back to Boston, finally signing a year later as a free agent with the New Jersey Devils . There he played some games in the NHL, but mostly in the AHL farm team of the Devils, the Albany River Rats . In March 2006 he was exchanged for the Vancouver Canucks and ended his NHL career at the end of the season to play in Germany with the DEG Metro Stars .

Due to a protracted injury to the groin and some game penalties, Brown could not convince, his contract was not extended. When the Nuremberg defender Jame Pollock announced his move to the Washington Capitals in the NHL , Brown was brought to Nuremberg as a replacement.

In March 2008 it was announced that Brown would switch to the Austrian record champions EC KAC for the 2008/09 season . There he quickly developed into one of the key players in defense and won the championship title with the team. In the following season, however, he injured his shoulder after just six games and was out for the entire season. Only in the last game of the quarter-finals did he play again, but could no longer prevent the EC KAC from being eliminated.
