Claude Giroux: "Reasons to be Cheerful Part III"

[YEM]

Brian Propp perhaps the least appreciated of Flyer greats.

quite possibly
I still hate Chelios

 

[Curufinwe]

Giroux is 2nd in the league in points despite not scoring in OT all season.

 

[The Rage Kage]

His stats are very clean 60 games 20 goals 50 assists 70 points

 

[macleish1974]

Giroux does have assists in OT, correct?

 

[Rebels57]

Giroux is 2nd in the league in points despite not scoring in OT all season.

That's absolutely insane.

On pace for 95 points, which obviously would be a career high.

I really hope he can do it, he really deserves it. Especially after all the grief he took last year and how hard he took it.

i am pulling for him to break 100 based on who we play and his stats against those teams

 

[Appleyard]

This is the season we will look back on in 15 years and be like 'yeh, that was the one that put him in the HHoF.'

Nah, they'll say it was all Hakstol

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Nah, they'll say it was all Hakstol

That's what I would call a "dystopian future," the numpties still trotting out their brain puke.

 

[FatTugboatFlahr]

He's going to be just as good next year too.

That's what makes us so lucky to have him - few have that all star drive

He's in excellent company at the top there. As he will be in the hall

[Captain Dave Poulin]

We haven't seen a ginger go beast mode this hard since this guy:

... or possibly this guy:

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

I know, you're all thinking "Where did you get a photo of Weise in street clothes?" I have my sources.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

He’s on a 98 point pace right now. He’s back to third in the point race with 74 points behind Malkin who has 76 points. As hot as Giroux has been with 8 points in his last 5 games Malkin’s been hotter with 11 points in his last 5 games.

Kucherov has had 10 points in his last 5 games. He still sits at the top with 82 points.

That's what happens when you are coached by Craig Berube and Dave Hakstol. #Coachingmatters #Talentdoesnt

 

[Hakroach]

That looks like Weise's ginger brother.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

That looks like Weise's ginger brother.

Yes.

[Audible Velvet]

You're the worst, Cap'n.
And I mean that in the best way!

 

[Rebels57]

Giroux hit 80 points last game for the 3rd time in his career and we weren't even able to enjoy it.

 

[AdamParrot]

Our captain is one of the favourites for Lady Byng Memorial Trophy NOW:

Giroux - 91 points, 20 PIM, 0 fights, 0 major, 0 match, 0 misc
Kopitar - 88 points, 18 PIM, 0 fights, 0 major, 0 match, 0 misc
Barkov - 75 points, 14 PIM, 0 fights, 0 major, 0 match, 0 misc

But still I prefer Giroux to hit 100 points!
