Opposing players always say the same thing: nobody likes playing against Eric Brewer. He is one of the best two-way defensemen in the league, and has become a perennial piece of Canada's international hockey successes. Weaknesses: Brewer has the potential to move from good to great, but has not been able to take that next step. He looks complacent on the ice at times and makes mistakes that veteran NHL defensemen should never make. Bottom Line: Brewer will always be troublesome for Oiler fans. Brewer was at the same stage Ed Jovanoski was a couple of years ago, but since then, Jovanoski has taken off, and Brewer has been unable to progress. [brewer.jpg]
