Danny Briere will miss a second game with an upper-body injury Wednesday night when the Flyers return from a three-day break to play in Buffalo. Rookie forward Matt Read, out the last two days with an upper-body injury, will miss at least the next two. With both absent from practice on Tuesday, the Flyers turned to their AHL team to bring in reinforcements by summoning in rookie forwards Ben Holmstrom and Harry Zolnierczyk from the Adirondack Phantoms. Because the Flyers had next to no available cap space to play, they apparently had to sent defenseman Matt Walker ($1.7 million cap hit) to the Phantoms in order to bring in Holmstrom ($900,000) and Harry Z ($700,000). With these moves, the Flyers have about in $392,000 cap cushion.
