David James Brown (born October 12, 1962) is a retired Canadian professional ice hockey right winger who played 14 seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL) for the Philadelphia Flyers, Edmonton Oilers and San Jose Sharks. He was primarily known as an enforcer throughout his career. He is currently the Flyers' head of pro scouting.
He was suspended for 15 games for cross-checking New York Rangers forward Tomas Sandstrom breaking his jaw and causing a concussion. At that time, it was among the stiffest penalties in NHL history. Brown's name was engraved on the Stanley Cup in 1990 with Edmonton.
