David Brine (born January 6, 1985, in Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada) is a professional ice hockey forward for the Florida Panthers organization of the National Hockey League.
[edit] Playing career
Brine spent three years with the Halifax Mooseheads of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, where he scored 100 points as 20 year old in 2005–06. He ended the season playing nine playoff games with the Manitoba Moose of the American Hockey League.
In 2006, Brine was a contestant on the Global TV reality series Making the Cut: Last Man Standing. Though he did not win the series, Brine impressed Mike Keenan enough to earn a tryout with the Florida Panthers. Signed as an undrafted free agent by the Panthers, Brine spent two years with the Panthers minor league affiliates before making his NHL debut with the Panthers on February 2, 2008.[1]
