The National Hockey League announced that Philadelphia Flyers forward Daniel Briere has been suspended for two games without pay due to a hit on Avalanche defenseman Scott Hannan in Colorado on Monday night. The incident happened at the second period after Hannan's goal.
Briere will forfeit $67,357 under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement and based on his average salary. The money goes to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund. Thus Briere will miss games on Nov. 25 against the New York Islanders and Nov. 27 at Buffalo. He will be eligible to come back to the game in his flyers jersey on Nov. 28 at Atlanta.
