Brent missed five games because of a lower-body injury before returning Thursday. He must have re-aggravated that injury because it appears he is going be out of the lineup again tonight.
Brent is a key to the Hurricanes PP and a great penalty killer so this is a tough loss for the Hurricanes. However he is not a great fantasy option. He only has 2 assists in 13 games this season.
Brent is once again the team's fourth line center -- the position he was brought in to play. He has four goals and 11 points in 40 games.
Brent moves up to a scoring line. The Cambridge, Ont., native has four goals and 11 points in 38 games.
Tim Brent gets back into the lineup after a brief, two-game absence. Expect him to center the fourth line and possibly reclaim some PP time.
