Katie Strang of ESPN.com has been going through each NHL team and listing its most important player. She recently has done the Flyers and listed our captain Claude Giroux, saying this about why he is the Flyers’ best:
“The 27-year-old is one of the most dynamic players in the league and is just one season removed from an impressive 2013-14 campaign (28 goals, 86 points) that resulted in a Hart Trophy nomination for the Hearst, Ontario, native. And this past season wasn’t so bad, either. Giroux finished with 25 goals and 73 points, second to Voracek.
