He was an assistant to Craig Hartsburg from 1998-2000, and he also served on Randy Carlyle’s staff from 2005-10, winning the Stanley Cup in 2006-07. Brown spent the past four seasons with the Vancouver Canucks and his duties included overseeing their power play units. Vancouver had the NHL’s fourth-best power play in 2019-20, but slipped to 25th this past season. The Ducks’ 8.9 percent on the power play in 2020-21 was the worst in league history. In addition to the Ducks and Canucks, Brown also has been an assistant with the Arizona Coyotes (2013-17), the Columbus Blue Jackets (2000- 04) and the Chicago Blackhawks (1996-98). He was on Alain Vigneault’s staff from 2010-13, his first stint with the Canucks. The Ducks hired Geoff Ward and Mike Stothers last month. The addition of Brown completed an assistant coaching shakeup on Dallas Eakins’ staff. Darryl Sutter, Mark Morrison and Marty Wilford were Eakins’ assistants the past two seasons. Orange County Register: LOADED: 07.08.2021 1190249 Anaheim Ducks candidates. I don’t know Mike myself. I haven’t worked with Mike personally, but we have people in common that we know and have worked with before. I think Dallas leaned on some people that know both Ducks’ new assistant coaches discuss power-play improvement, of us. communication and defensive depth “We had a good conversation. And then it just carried forward from there as these things do. It was good and I’m excited about it.” By Eric Stephens This is Ward’s fourth club.
