Carson Briere, son of former NHLer and current Flyers GM Daniel Briere, is known widely for his involvement in the viral "wheelchair" incident, where Briere is seen pushing an empty wheelchair down a flight of stairs.
Briere was removed from the Mercyhurst men's hockey team after the incident went viral on social media. At 23 years old, playing professionally in Europe could very well have been one of his only options to continue his hockey career.
