Danny Briere, the General Manager of the Flyers, is actively seeking a new team for Ryan Johansen, indicating that Johansen may not be in the Flyers' future plans. Briere has been transparent about the situation, stating that while Johansen is not considered part of the solution for the Flyers, they are looking to find him a suitable place before tomorrow's NHL trade deadline.
