He’s made good picks allegedly. I wouldn’t know, only a handful of them are playing in the nhl.

Plus was gifted the #2 pick

Still cannot believe G Simmonds and Jake are all nonetheless still here.

Can you imagine if people got on Embiid every time the Sixers lost even if he played well?

LOL

DEAR GOD LOL

I know you fall in that camp of thinking a guy who plays 1/3rd of a game is responsible for how the whole team plays but it's pretty dumb that only applies in hockey.

Still laughing at you. Keep drinking the cool aid.

Dude has helped make the flyers irrelevant despite playing his core years during time when Phillies and Sixers literally stunk. That’s skill

that’s a super strange, and incorrect, take.

I sort of miss Steve Mason

Yeah this is such a dumb take. This isn't the NBA or even QB in the NFL where one guy can lift a team.

OMG Mike Trout sucks because the Angels suck.

We need a REAL captain like Mike Richards who led us to a cup run all by himself.

The Saviour has a hate boner for Giroux, don't even engage him.

Waiting for the G accomplishments. Ready, go.

Where’s the one where he got drunk playing golf and broke his wrist?

Jesus Christ you sound just like Donald Trump. For "hating" Trump so much you sure subscribe to a number of his methods.

Makes outrageous claim, tells others to prove him wrong.

He’s been a top ten player in the league for a decade.

5 All Star appearances, 7 times in top 10 assists, 5 time top 10 in points, 2nd all time in Assists with the Flyers.

And he’s made hockey irrelevant in Philly

Make Hockey Great Again amirite.

Claude Giroux has made hockey irrelevant all by himself. Is this supposed to be posted from your Dorn account?

You can continue to defend him. He should be traded and should’ve been 2 years ago.

He isn't the entire reason the Flyers have sucked for years so stop moving the goal posts trump.

Over the past 10 seasons (since his first full season), Giroux is fourth in points scored league-wide, behind only Crosby, Ovechkin, and Kane. He’s done this and been a plus-player for his career despite having a remarkably balanced offensive/defensive start % for a star player (51.7-48.3). Giroux has been incredibly durable, missing only 10 total games over that 10 season span. As far as trading him goes, I’m not sure what is meant by two years ago, but the 16-17 season was the nadir of his value as he played the entire year hurt and put up career-worst numbers. Blaming him for the Flyers’ woes instead of shitty roster construction, inability to develop defensemen, over-reliance on replacement level veterans, and the goalkeeping carousel is laughable.

But prove him wrong.
