$trait Cash, HomieSo much for the dream scenario. Like Ryan Seacrest at the end of each American Idol episode, Danny Briere is out. After turning down a 5-year, $25MM deal offered Wednesday, Briere's agent made it official that his client will look for more money in the open market, which most likely means that he will not return to the team that prevented him from a long and less than lucrative European hockey career.
Not much to say really here. Free agency means players come and go. It happens to every team
in every sport, but that doesn't make it less painful for fans.
It was a good ride, it could have been better, but why settle for $5MM a year from a team that has a real chance when you can go help re-build a team for $6+MM? It was the rap-star Mace who said it first, "It's all about the Benjamins". So much for a hometown discount.
Enjoy Philly Danny. Maybe I'll run into you some summer at the Shore, and I'll be sure to buy you a Yuengling and we can talk the old days. Also, I prefer Geno's over Pat's, in case you care.
