Report: Daniel Briere will return to the NHL in a new role.

It didn't take long for former NHL player Daniel Briere to move on to the next stage of his hockey career.

Really only a few short weeks after making his retirement official Briere has revealed that he has taken a part time front office position as a member of the Philadelphia Flyers, although Briere did not reveal exactly what his role would be.

Despite playing for several NHL teams in his career most fans will remember him as one of the more recognizable Flyers' in recent history, so it's fitting that his career off the ice begins in Philly. The job also comes with the perk of being no more than a 10 minute drive from his teenage sons at all times, something that has always been a major priority for Briere.

We wish him all the best in his new management position.
