Five Memorable Claude Giroux Moments As A Flyer

While Philadelphia is seemingly happy with what they got in return in Owen Tippett, it's still a sensitive topic. The forward spent 15 seasons with Philadelphia. Notably, Giroux was a big reason Philadelphia was so successful in their 2010 cup run, where they lost to the Chicago Blackhawks in the finals. During Giroux's time in Philadelphia, he had seven All-Star appearances, eight postseason appearances, and one cup run. Recently, Giroux returned to the Wells Fargo Center as an Ottawa Senator. The Ottawa native returned home after finishing the season with 18 games in Florida. While the Senators are not necessarily a contending team, there is still no slowing down Giroux.

Another familiar face who returned to Philadelphia was Zac MacEwen, who recorded a few seasons with the Flyers.
