Today, Danny Briere made a significant trade with the Columbus Blue Jackets in an effort to advance the rebuilding process.

It's worth noting that the Blue Jackets are a frequent trade partner with the Philadelphia Flyers.
Chuck Fletcher sitting at home wondering how Danny Briere got a 1st and 2nd for Provorov when the best offer he got as GM was a 7th rounder in the NFL Draft.

On Twitter, some users are humorously calling out Chuck Fletcher for failing to acquire the valuable assets Briere was able to secure in a masterful manner.
Specifically, Briere was able to acquire assets for Ivan Provorov, a defenseman whom Fletcher had previously attempted to obtain and failed.
It's nice to just see that a GM is willing to take some god damn risk in order to get better and get this franchise back on track.

This is a very bold first statement from Briere as GM and I absolutely love it.
Briere then traded Provorov, who expressed a desire to leave, for movable assets and draft picks that can be utilized in the future or to trade up in the draft if necessary.
People are rightfully recognizing Briere's skill as the new GM, and this praise is well-deserved.
This is undoubtedly a masterclass in Briere's first day making trades for the Flyers franchise.
1:40 PM: I'm willing to give Daniel Briere a chance, but I've been hurt so many times before.

3:00 PM: I would kill a hundred thousand men for Daniel Briere.
