In a season where the Philadelphia Flyers didn’t have any players that they had to move or else they would walk to free agency, general manager Daniel Briere got ahead of the trade market in late January. That deal with the Calgary Flames landed the Flyers a pair of roster players and draft picks — including another second-rounder — in return for two forwards who hadn’t lived up to expectations in Philadelphia.
Now, amidst the 4 Nations Face-Off break with less than a month until the trade deadline, Briere and Co. need to take advantage of the trade market in his NHL landscape.
