Chuck Gormley of the Courier Post takes us inside the home, the hearth, if you will, of Danny Briere and Claude Giroux:
On practice days, Briere and Giroux usually share a ride to the Skate Zone in Voorhees, grab lunch and are back in Haddonfield in time for one of them to pick up the three boys at Central School, where Caelan, in seventh grade, Carson, in sixth, and Cameron, in fourth, stay for homework club until 4 p.m.
"They'd rather have Claude pick them up," Briere says. "He's like a big brother to them and it's cool for their friends."
It seems the kids prefer to have Uncle 'Roo pick them up.
The most amazing part? All three of Briere's sons play hockey and he's the assistant coach on all of their teams- two of which are coached by Keith Primeau and Derian Hatcher, respectively.

You know what, if his kids turn out to be better than “Fatty Arbuckle” Reid’s scions, than I’m OK with it. I wish I had an Uncle ‘Roo to teach me life’s lessons when I was just a little ball bearing trying to make my way in this mad world.
That was a great article. oh how much fun it would be to live in that house!!
btw, his son looks just like him!!
What a great Dad Briere is and Giroux living and learning with him is really cool story. Those are some lucky kids with such famous and cool Dad and big brother.
Great story all around, and glad to see Briere stepping up and being a solid single dad….
Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this blog. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s challenging to get that “perfect balance” between usability and appearance. I must say you have done a superb job with this. Additionally, the blog loads very quick for me on Internet explorer. Superb Blog!
I visited many web pages but the audio feature for audio songs present at this site is in fact marvelous.
Howdy just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your article seem to be running off the screen in Ie. I’m not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to let you know. The style and design look great though! Hope you get the problem fixed soon. Thanks
