Briere calls it quits

DANIEL Briere, a two-time world champion for Canada, has retired after 17 seasons in the National Hockey League, he announced on Monday.

Quebec-born Briere, 37, a single father, cited as the main reason for his decision a desire to spend more time with his three sons. The forward scored 307 goals and 696 points in 973 regular-season games for five NHL teams, the Phoenix Coyotes, Buffalo Sabres, Philadelphia Flyers, Montreal Canadiens and the Colorado Avalanche. Briere helped his teams advance to the conference final in five of his last 10 seasons, but never got to lift the Stanley Cup.
