he can talk like that inside the room. the fact that he went public with that is a disgrace.
he should worry more about scoring goals, and not how hard he decides to play based on what the goalie does.
he brought this on himself for shooting off his mouth. let Lavi say those things.
and how about you ignoring that I was the one who said Lavi & Homer needed to sit Bryz down & straighten him out. and if the COACH wants to say those things publicly as a motivation tool, fine by me ....

Wait so a leader of the room isn't allowed to say this **** but Homer or Lavy are? Lavy and Homer both stated that he needed to play better. He didn't respond to either of those. Briere, who took it upon himself, to motivate and set Bryz straight. What your missing is Bryz wasn't giving his all, and the team was pissed at him. This is what leaders do, they push buttons to get players going. What Briere did worked and was very instrumental to bryz turning the corner. When they meet with him and flat out told him he needs to be a better team mate it struck home with Bryz.
Your trying to make it look like Briere is the bad guy for not scoring. But guess what, he is one of the choices for captain next year for a reason. He has the respect of those players. If he said this about Bryz, then it shows you how torn that locker room was with our "#1 star goalie".
