From TSN:
The Philadelphia Flyers are expected to be without forward Daniel Briere for up to a month after suffering a torn abdominal muscle in Wednesday’s shootout loss to the San Jose Sharks.
‘’Danny has a slight tear in his reptus abdominis, which is a stomach muscle,’’ said Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren. ‘’He will be out of the lineup approximately 3-4 weeks.’’
Holmgren said that the 31-year-old Gatineau, Quebec native is slated to undergo surgery Saturday morning.
