Out a couple of weeks with injured hand

Brown is out a "couple of weeks" with a hand injury, per Capitals head coach Barry Trotz, CSN Washington's Chuck Gormley reports.Specifics about the injury are unclear at this point. Brown signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Capitals in mid-July. That type of deal will allow him to shuttle between the organizational ranks, with the potential to be a call-up option for the parent club once he gets healthy again. He made his way into five games last season, having notched one point in five games.
