Which Philadelphia Flyers players have also played for the Sabres? Puckdoku NHL Grid answers for August 10

The Puckdoku NHL Grid for Thursday, August 10, has tasked hockey fans to complete a section featuring the Philadelphia Flyers and the Buffalo Sabres.

To complete this section in one go, one must be well aware of both teams' history. The Philadelphia Flyers are two-time Stanley Cup champions and compete in the Metro Division of the Eastern Conference.

The Buffalo Sabres, on the other hand, is one of the best NHL teams that has never won the Stanley Cup. They compete in the East's Atlantic Division. Notably, there are 49 players to have donned both Flyers and Sabres jerseys.

To solve this NHL grid, Daniel Briere is one of the correct answers to enter. Briere was a 17-year National Hockey League veteran. He donned the Flyers jersey for six years and spent four seasons with the Buffalo Sabres.

The 5-foot-9 Canadian center was drafted No. 24 by the Phoenix Coyotes in the 1996 NHL Draft and spent six years with the team. Moreover, Briere also played for the Montreal Canadiens and Colorado Avalanche in his 973 career games.
