New Philadelphia Flyers general manager Daniel Briere is eager to put his fingerprints on the team.

The Flyers have already made the biggest trade of the offseason so far, completing a three-way deal with the Kings and Blue Jackets that sent Ivan Provorov to Columbus. Philadelphia acquired defenseman Sean Walker, goalie Cal Petersen, prospect Helge Grans, and three draft picks, including the 22nd overall selection, in the deal.

"Adding another first-round pick this year in the Provorov trade gets our amateur scouts really excited to have two cracks at it," Briere said on the "Ray and Dregs Podcast" on Friday.

The Flyers, who also hold the No. 7 pick in the draft, don't appear to be done making moves.

"I don't know how active I'm gonna be," Briere said. "It's easy to say that, 'Yeah, I want to be active.' But you need a dancing partner - sometimes two, like in the last trade - to make things happen. We're gonna try to make things happen, but sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't."

Briere hasn't been shy about sending Philadelphia into a rebuild since he was named full-time GM in May. Forwards Kevin Hayes and Scott Laughton, defenseman Tony DeAngelo, and goaltender Carter Hart are among the several Flyers players rumored to be on the trade market.

Philadelphia has missed the playoffs in each of the last three seasons - the longest postseason drought in franchise history since it missed it five years in a row from 1990-94.
