#Flyers GM Paul Holmgren announced that Danny Briere's status is now day-to-day. Forward James van Riemsdyk remains out indefinitely.
Amid the ash, debris and rubble of The Lost Weekend against the Devils and Rangers, a light came pouring out of the Skate Zone rafters on Monday.
Danny Briere.
He took contact for the second time in four days. If he has no post-concussive side effects, it sounds like Briere could be available for Tuesday’s game against the Islanders.
“It’s a possibility,” Briere said. “I haven’t ruled it out.”
He’s missed six games with a concussion suffered Jan. 21 at New Jersey. His condition was upgraded to day to day on Monday. He had previously been out indefinitely.
Briere said he has passed all concussion-related tests and just needs clearance from the medical staff to play.
“I felt pretty good again today – last couple of days have been pretty good,” said Briere, who was among a dozen players who participated in an optional practice.
“Skating-wise, everything checks out. I’ve been working out and pushing myself more every day.
