Briere and team president Keith Jones have remained steadfast in their plans of patience, waiting until the correct move arises to strike and cash in their chips, in this case being prospect and draft capital.
“We’re not willing to give up on our future at this point, I realize that it’s a glaring need that we’d like to upgrade, but it has to make sense”, Briere said when asked about the center market approaching the deadline.
