Briere was sent down to the Phantoms to play three games for a conditioning assignment. That's pretty much it..... Less than a month into the 2008-09 season, on October 22, Brière suffered another abdominal tear requiring surgery. He was expected to be sidelined at least a month,[12] but returned within half that time on November 8 against the Tampa Bay Lightning.[13] In the next game, however, against the New York Islanders on November 11, he suffered a groin pull,[14] sidelining him for nine games. In his first game back, Brière suffered yet another setback; he re-injured his groin on December 3 against the Tampa Bay Lightning.[15] Preparing to make a return to the Flyers lineup, he was assigned to the Philadelphia Phantoms of the AHL on January 13, 2009, to play three games on a conditioning basis.[16] Brière finished the season having played in just 29 games for the Flyers, recording 11 goals and 14 assists. The Flyers were eliminated for the second consecutive year in the playoffs by the Pittsburgh Penguins, the eventual Stanley Cup champions. Brière scored one goal along with three assists in the series.
7:15 players like Danny Briere?? He played 3 games for the phantoms AFTER already being in the NHL for 7 years and signing a 8 year deal with the Flyers 😂😂😂😂
