Don't forget that Brière doesnt have as much TOI as the other two. But in all for all the three this has been a letdown year.

Are you kidding me. Ryder sucks. Most hated forward on the team. Guy is awful…I'd trade him for a conditional 7th.

That story never ends wherever he goes.

You like Briere and his contract better? Or how about three more years of Vinny.... no thanks. Ryder isn't Guy Lafleur but his contract makes him the best of this lot and quite frankly we don't have any depth on the wings.

Briere.

-Lecavalier is overpayed, plus he only has 30pts playing on I believe their second line with ATOI of 15:30.
-Ryder has the best contract, but he too has an ATOI of basically 16:00 on NJ's second line...and we know how he plays in the playoffs.
-Briere has the lowest production, and a mediocre deal, but he has an ATOI of 12:50 and played on our fourth line for the majority of this season. Therrien hasn't given this guy any chances expect for when we've experienced injuries.

haha nice :laugh:

voted briere but honestly, it's like asking where you wanna get kicked: nuts, face or shin. all things considered, linemates, TOI, briere is doing very well. and im pretty sure he was brought in the playoffs, so im curious to see how he's gonna do in a few weeks.

Not really fair to Briere considering the ice time he gets, and this is coming from someone who hated the signing.

My vote goes to Briere, and his playoff performance can't be denied. Hopefully he's allowed to do his thing in the playoffs this year. Could be a dangerous weapon after the Pacioretty-Desharnais-Vanek line.

Brière has been doing decently since paired with Gionta and Bourque, thus enabling him to be at center. Who would have thought... Not sure how this line would hold up in the playoffs though.

I don't minf keeping Briere, I would have liked to have Ryder but we all knew that wasn't going to happen. After his first stint here it was never going to work again.

It's pretty much a wash if you ask me. I would have been fine with DB if we didn't already have Gallagher, Gionta, DD, Pleks, etc.

Briere always comes to play when it matters. Therrien has been hiding him all year to try to keep him healthy, obviously.

Lecav has had a lot of injuries over the years. He's not the same player.
