in 2 or 3 years giroux (who turned 23 last week) will be considered one of the top handful of offensive players in the NHL. his skills are scary. if he gets a little stronger and a little more confident, there is nothing stopping him. as a bruins fan Ive seen him play live 5 or 6 times in the last 2+ years. he gets noticibly better every time he steps on the ice.
Foligno didn't really land anything. The only punch that really landed flush to the face was Giroux's punch to Foligno at 16 seconds. Foligno maybe had one where he grazed Giroux's face but nothing really more than that. Foligno was more aggressive for sure but I would say the fight was at best a draw.
My ottawa senators are obiously the most ruggid team…..they had the epic fight with philly the epic fight with buffalo this fight with the other line brawl this same game (i waas there) and the binghamton senators have had millions of line fights and bench clearing with syracuse which i live in binghamton GO B-Sens GO O-Sens
@ensuboca I love seeing comments like this. Especially from a non-Flyers fan! Lol you're right. Claude is one scary talented guy. You guys have got a hell of a team too. You guys and the Rangers are gonna be tough to beat! =)
hahaha yeah I totally noticed that as well, never seen a hockey player do it in an actual hockey fight tho, might have just kicked in as an instinct if he's used to doing mma on regular basis
3rd in points during the regular season, led in playoff points until about the last game of the Final even though the Flyers got knocked-out in the 2nd round, fights anyone who wants it, loves to take the body, has the craziest shifts, arguably the best playmaker in the league with his assists and physical play, and is only 23.
finished 3rd in the league in points – 2nd in points per game
had 17 points in 10 playoff games this past year
averages over a point a game in his 50 career playoff games
is a great all around player on top of his great offensive skill – good defensively, regular on the penalty kill, plays physical …
if you are going to make such a ridiculous claim you need to give reasons to back it up, i could say malkin sucks, he clearly doesnt, i could day messi sucks, he clearly doesnt …
but crosby beat up giroux? giroux has been in what 2 fights, and is ass. In the end of the day, Crosby 5'11" 200lbs, is bigger than Giroux 5'11" 170. Crosby is better than Giroux(stats only show) and Crosby is 100x more clutch than Giroux(Golden Goal), do i need to go into detail? pussy or not, crosby is better than giroux.
So hella you think jail house criminals should be the idol of our kids? No wonder the country is screwed. The flyers are barely above the Islanders in being the worst in the NHL. What a joke they are.
whats so ironic frank? i simply listed girouxs statistics to someone who said giroux sucked, i simple brought up how in his 1st year where he got 1st line min and PP time he put up 93 pts in 78 gmd and 17 pts in 10 playoff games … he also has 55 pts in 50 career playoff gms which stretches over several years when he was only a prospect playing small minutes
giroux had a disappointing year after that where he had 48 pts in 48 gms which is still good … give him time to get back in his game

Giroux!!!!!
@BigHickey25 "Complete props to him for backing up his play in the game." Amen to that.
giroux is fucken merked
Giroux is 32 pounds lighter, but the announcers don't say anything about it… Only when a Senator is the lighter one (Neil)
@BigHickey25 And Foligno is known as a tough guy ??? LOL slight edge Foligno in a fight between two non fighters, simple as that.
y giroux fight here? the game is in the bag, why risk breaking a hand or finger? just my 2 cents.

NHL = professional wrestling
Made for morons!
Claude Pussy couldn't break an egg with his punches.

any body think he looks like clarke in this bout…lol
This is one of the worst fights I've ever seen!
i love fights between non fighters. always entertaining.
G JUST missed with a knockout shot at :15
at 0:23 when foligno falls i think he smacked his head off the ice pretty hard
@simplyphenomenalv1 back up his hit!? why would he need to do that!? the hit was absolutely beautiful and not even close to cheap.

too bad ottawa is still awful
wow inside leg trip by giroux, impressive
kind of a tricky little slew foot at the end there by giroux…..i say draw
Tie.
if giroux had no teeth in front he would be bobby clarks twin
@oviegregoire foligno is gay! GO GIROUX!
@itsthizzbaby hahahahaha yes!
Besides having more teeth than Clark he has more talent.Now what he does with that talent is the question.

I know that he's good. Agree to disagree.

Crosby> Grioux

Giroux is a bitc@ just like Crosby.
So hella you think jail house criminals should be the idol of our kids? No wonder the country is screwed. The flyers are barely above the Islanders in being the worst in the NHL. What a joke they are.
Oh the irony…
no shit crosby is the best player in the world and has been for like 6 years
whats so ironic frank? i simply listed girouxs statistics to someone who said giroux sucked, i simple brought up how in his 1st year where he got 1st line min and PP time he put up 93 pts in 78 gmd and 17 pts in 10 playoff games … he also has 55 pts in 50 career playoff gms which stretches over several years when he was only a prospect playing small minutes

talk about man points. Giroux took on a guy almost twice his size and did pretty freakin well. Thats why i love this guy!
Very nice
Foligno definitely smacked his head when he fell.
