I'll just leave this here. Since it still remains completely true.

Why would Briere say Pronger is out for game 1? To screw with the Sabres' minds?

Briere has now :

- Made the comment.
- Told one media outlet that he was screwing around.
- Told another media outlet that he has no idea.

Do you get my point about not believing anything anyone says this time of year, or are you more focused on defending the fact that you bought this hook, line, and sinker?

So you're calling Paul Hamilton a liar?

Regardless, my point is STILL valid, even if you throw out Paul Hamilton's report.

- Briere said he was out on WGR.
- Briere said he didn't have any idea later on in Philly.

So again, I'm correct. You still should not believe what people say about injuries in the playoffs.

But that's fine. If you get off on overreacting and making yourself look foolish, then by all means, go ahead.

Who started a thread professing Briere's statements as fact? You did.

Who also is making the assumption that Briere got yelled at by his coach and GM? You are.

Who went back and edited their post and thread title after the fact? You dod.

This entire thread is a joke, and you know it.

UPDATED: Well, we speculated that Danny Briere might have been joking around with the radio hosts in Buffalo.

And he told the reporters in the locker room after Flyers' practice that is just what he was doing.

Oh look...

If we take him at his word, Briere said he "had no clue" about Pronger's status for the playoff series against the Sabres.

Chris Pronger skated again on Tuesday, but he didn’t shoot a single puck in 50 minutes of hard skating.

Of course, there’s always tomorrow, right?

Pronger strongly hinted that Wednesday will likely indicate one way or the other his readiness to play in Game 1 of the playoffs against the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday.

He did say was “very” confident he’ll play during this series, but wouldn’t commit to Game 1. He hasn’t shot a puck at a practice since April 4.

“You’ll have to wait and find out,” he said of playing in the series opener.

One club source rated Pronger as “doubtful” for Game 1.

It's the playoffs. Don't believe anything anybody says. (Especially players talking about other player's injury status.)

Still stands. Still correct.

Whatever. You're a fucking moron. Briere has made two opposing comments on Pronger's status for game 1. Of course one of them is going to turn out correct.

Stick to selling boats son.
