. Given Brière’s intelligence and work ethic, those close to him aren’t surprised by how quickly he’s climbing the front-office ranks. “When it was time to retire, after my last year in Colorado, there’s no doubt that we were going to be in Philadelphia,” Brière said. “That’s where the kids have grown up. That’s where they called home. And it had become my second home as well.”
The two discussed the front office trajectory of Los Angeles Kings president and Hockey Hall of Fame player Luc Robitaille, who has mentored both Brière and Camillo. Brière informed Camillo that he wanted to grow his business acumen and Camillo suggested that he enroll in a business program to position himself for his next chapter in hockey. With Camillo’s guidance, Brière completed a two-year general management program at the Penn’s Wharton School of Business in 2021.
, that they would rename and relocate to Portland, Maine. Holmgren, who was named the team’s governor, and then-Flyers chief operating officer Shawn Tilger tapped Brière as the organization’s vice president of operations to oversee day-to-day happenings on both the hockey and business fronts. “There’s a lot of days where it was overwhelming and I was wondering if I had any clue what I was doing,” Brière said. “But you surround yourself with good people, it goes a long way.”
One of the first moves Brière made on the hockey side was hiring the team’s first head coach, Riley Armstrong. Armstrong, now an assistant coach with the Phantoms, reached out to former Flyers Brayden and Luke Schenn for their impressions of Brière before he interviewed for the job. Even while being pulled in multiple directions within the company, Armstrong noticed that Brière never missed a beat.
