Danny Briere wasn’t quite done.
The Flyers’ general manager capped off his work on Day 1 of NHL free agency by signing the tough-to-play-against winger Garnet Hathaway.
The club inked the 31-year-old Saturday night to a two-year, $4.75 million contract. The deal has an annual cap hit of $2.375 million.
Hathaway had long been a pest to the Flyers. And the opponent he has scored against the most? The Flyers, with 11 points (five goals, six assists).
Last season, the Presidents’ Trophy-winning Bruins acquired him in a February trade with the Capitals.
In 2021-22 with Washington, he put up career highs in goals (14), assists (12), plus-minus (plus-19) and minutes per game (13:23).
Hathaway has played in 31 career playoff games.
