Danny Briere held his annual pre-draft and free agency presser today on June 20, 2024. He spoke on a variety of topics, including an outline for free agency to Matvei Michkov. Here are the notes to Briere’s presser.

  1. Danny Briere with a smoke screen possibly on trades: “I don’t think there’s anything imminent at this point.”
  2. Briere said the Flyers are open to trading up and trading back. He also said if there is a Center and a defenseman on the board they both like. He hints at taking the Center.
  3. Danny Briere says they don’t know about the Matvei Michkov situation, so they will operate as if he is not coming this season.
  4. Danny Briere says there has been no clarity from the league on the Carter Hart situation
  5. Danny Briere is officially the prospect guru
  6. He said he loves to travel and watch prospects. He says he’s seen the top 40-50 guys
  7. Danny Briere: “We don’t expect to do much on free agency day. We have a lot of dead money on our books.” With Briere saying this, I still find it hard to believe they may buy out Cam Atkinson
