Philidelphia Flyers General Manager's Son Caught on Video Shoving a Wheelchair Down a Flight of Stairs

Some may argue about the presence of the wheelchair at the top of the stairs or why it was unoccupied, but those arguments do not excuse the lack of respect shown by Carson. An explanation was offered by @juliazukowski, who shared the original video on Twitter, as to why the chair was left at the top of the stairs.

Mercyhurst University has issued a statement regarding the incident

Here is a statement from Daniel Brière and his son Carson following the incident.

As a member of a university hockey team and the son of an NHL executive, someone with Briere's status should display more respect and class than what is seen in the video. This type of behaviour is inexcusable, regardless of how much alcohol was consumed or if it was intended as a joke.

It remains to be seen what will happen to Briere in the future after this incident, but it is hoped that he will face the consequences of his actions.
