Briere practices Tuesday: Flyers C Daniel Briere practiced with the Flyers on Tuesday for the first time since he injured his knee in a collision last week at Pittsburgh, and the star center said he's confident he'll be ready to play against Washington. Briere missed the final two games of the regular season, watching in street clothes while Philadelphia clinched a playoff berth and missing a win against Pittsburgh that gave Philadelphia the sixth seed.

Fantasy Analysis
Briere finished his first season in Philadelphia on a seven-game points streak. He has five goals and five assists in that span. Briere actually had a nice run at the end with 17 points (nine goals) in 15 games. He didn't come close to his career-high 95 points which he set last season with Buffalo and also finished with a career-worst minus-22 rating. Those two areas will hurt him heading into Draft Day 2008, but we still like him as a No. 2 Fantasy forward. (Updated 04/09/2008).
