Grainy footage, box score give legs to rumor

Footage on YouTube.com has recently popped up which give credance to the rumors that Sean Brown was respnsible for the destruction of the Boston Bruins charter flight last week.

Video footage, apparently from the cell phone of someone on the flight, has been uploaded to the popular video sharing website that shows a man - allegedly Brown - ripping the seat cushions off of a row of the plane, then pelting the younger players ahead of him with them. Ten minutes later, the player is seen chugging from several of the tiny airplane liquor servings, then trying to challenge Matt Walker to a duel with the broken bottles. When Walker accepts, Brown backs down - until Walker returns to his seat, when Brown jumps him and beats Walker with a rolled up magazine.

The footage from the plane ends as Brown was working over Walker, but then picks up with a passed out Walker on the charter bus the defensemen took from Atlanta to Raleigh. It then ends, but the bus footage provides some support that the footage came from another defensive player.

When coupled with Sean Brown's goon-like status in the following game - twenty-seven penalty minutes in only fourteen minutes of ice time - it appears Brown was clearly not himself in that stretch.
