Good news for Carson Briere, months after wheelchair incident
Controversial move by the son of Flyers’ GM Daniel Briere…
HockeyFeed
This past spring, Carson Briere was dismissed from the Mercyhurst University men’s hockey team, a Division 1 team in the NCAA, after surveillance video footage emerged of his having pushed an unoccupied wheelchair down the stairs of Sullivan’s Pub in Erie, Pennsylvania. He would be charged with second-degree criminal mischief and disorderly conduct.
The son of Philadelphia Flyers GM Daniel Briere apologized for his actions, but was still suspended from the Mercyhurst University men’s hockey team, an NCAA Division I team, where he put up 23 goals and 36 assists during his playing career there.
While he may be attempting to get his life back on track, he is getting away from all the legal issues as he has landed his first professional contract this week with HC 19 Humenne, a team playing in the Slovak Extraliga. The team was formed in 2019 and won the Slovak 1. Liga league this past season.
This is good news for the young player, who can still turn his life around, though the news did create some controversy online.
We will have to wait and see if Briere can put this event behind him and focus on his career.
