Briere and Cote in line up versus Washington

The Flyers have announced that Danny Briere and Riley Cote will both be in the line up Thursday against the Washington Capitals.  Briere, who has played just 12 games this season due to a chronic groin injury, will be inserted into the lineup for Andreas Nodl.  Cote, who left Tuesday’s game against the Buffalo Sabres because of an upper body injury, will also be in the lineup after tests on his shoulder came back negative.

Meanwhile, Washington enforcer Donald Brashear is still questionable for Thursday with a knee sprain.  Brashear left Tuesday’s contest against the Nashville Predators  after getting KO’d by Wade Belak.
