The National Hockey League announced today that they have suspended Flyers center Danny Briere for two games for his hit on Avalanche defenseman Scott Hannan during Monday’s game at Colorado.
“We were informed that Danny Briere was suspended two games by the NHL for his hit last night on Scott Hannan,” said Flyers General Manager Paul Holmgren. “It’s obviously disappointing to not have Danny in the lineup for the next few games, but it’s a decision that the league has come down with and we’ll live with it. We look forward to having Danny back in the lineup in two games.”
“I respect the decision,” said Briere. “I’ll live with it, and try to move on after the two-game suspension.”
The Flyers will have no further comment regarding this suspension.
