Thank god for Philly...what a horrible shitty signing

Could you imagine being stuck with Briere for 8 years. The guy will never score more than 65 poiints anyuwhere in the NHL other than Buffalo.

Thats actually a worse signing than Dipeitro in NY

He will pick up 70+ points next year should he stay healthy.

The contract pays him 10 million this season (6.5 cap hit ) 52 million

AND NO MOVEMENT CLAUSE!

Sources tell TSN Daniel Briere is in the process of finalizing an eight-year contract with the Philadelphia Flyers between $6 million and $7 million per year. Briere, 29, came off a career season in which he led the Buffalo Sabres with 95 points. He added a team-leading 15 points (three goals, 12 assists) in the playoffs.

So potentially, the Habs offered him more money and 2 years less.

I hope the same fans who criticized Bob for picking McDonagh instead of Esposito and Pacioretty instead of another Quebec-born player will sit down and realize this guy may have passed up more money by the Habs to play elsewhere.

DANIEL BRIERE: The Canadiens desperately want to bring the Gatineau native back to Canada. Sources say he'd like to play for the Habs, but he's concerned about the effect it might have on his family because of the intense pressure on a French Canadian player in Montreal.

Thanks franco media. No french star for you a******s

Anyone else get the feeling that 2, maybe 3 years from now we'll look back on this summer and laugh at the insane contracts teams handed out?

If more players sign contracts like this one Briere just did, you can't expect them all to be producing the way they had further into the contract... hahaha it's a joke.

Drury will get less!

Also a shorter deal

and there will not be a no movement clause.

Drury is better and more coveted than Briere.

If it will take less, then the Habs should offer him what they offered Briere.

I doubt he wants to play in Canada but I do believe he will cost less.

pretty much and usually they all come back to roost. Weird loyalty they've got.

Not too hard to understand. They get to play 2/3 of a season with no pressure on a losing team, then get to go to a playoff team to try and win a Cup.
