“For my Secret Santa I picked Hampus Lindholm. I got him a gift card to the mall, hopefully he can go on a little shopping spree and get some clothes that maybe fit him a little looser and a little bit longer, as well.”

But when Brown, 27. does play, don’t be surprised if he raises his right fist during the Star Spangled Banner. It’s a symbol for solidarity and strength as Brown hopes to bring awareness to police brutality and inequality for minorities.

Brown, one of around 30 black players in the NHL, used this silent protest during Thursday’s exhibition game in Sunrise, finding it a middle ground for those who say kneeling for the anthem disrespects the flag. Brown said he spoke with several active military, along with his family before deciding what he felt was right.

Brown spoke to coach Jon Cooper and his Lightning teammates before Thursday’s silent protest. Captain Steven Stamkos and Ryan Callahan have said they’d support a teammate who protested.

But Brown wasn’t ready to say when, or how often, he’ll raise his fist during the anthem this year.

“It’s kind of hard to just say you’re going to do it one time or throughout the season,” Brown said. “For me, right now, we’re going to keep trying to bring awareness. You want to make sure you’re in the community, you’re backing up what you’re talking about, what you’re supporting, not just talk.”

I know everyone loves hockey twitter but I feel like it’s a terrible oversight to just ignore the potential of “sports journalism”.
