  1. I love claude but this video is absolute garbage. You mispronounced almost every name. You skipped over our 2010 cup loss and you said that 3 different seasons were the one that claude became elite. Absolute garbage.

  2. Claude Giroux is one of the greatest Flyers of all time and it’s a damn shame some of our fans don’t see that

  3. from 2010-2023 he was such a dawg! Always did the little things right and was well over a point per game or roughly a point per game

  4. There’s a couple of lies in this video. During G’s 102 point season the Flyers were alright but nobody was expecting them to win it all that year. Plus during the 2012 playoffs against the penguins, I don’t believe for one second Crosby gave any Flyer any complaints. That’s where the famous “I don’t like any of them” interview came from. Last, Giroux hasn’t won any major NHL awards. He was always coming a hair short or flat out getting screwed. He should have won the Hart during the season of 2017-18 but they gave it Tyler Hall which was a clear rip off.

  5. Been a flyer fan since 86 when i was just 8 years old, watching Hexy play made me want to be a goalie so thats what i did. When he was traded i hated it but i understood why, with Lindros being the return, but it still stung. I haven't had a real "favorite" player really since and when guys would get traded, left in FA or retired i missed them but it was just "part of the business". Now saying all that, i never wanted G traded and even hoped he would come back when/if a chance arose. Hes the only player that ive wanted back and regretted us moving on from for as long as i can remember. I do hope he gets a cup and will absolutely be up in the rafters with the rest of our great players of the past.

  6. Bragging about someone playing kids 3 years older in house is wild … any good aaa player could if it was other kids in rep thats a different story

  7. I OWN CLAUDE GIROUX FLYERS AUTHENTIC NHL CAPTAINS JERSEY AND I'M GLAD I KEPT IT ALL THESE YEARS. I KNOW SOMEDAY IT'S GOING TO BE WORTH A LOT OF MONEY đŸ€”

  8. One of the greatest Flyers ever. I feel like was criticized a lot too for his leadership especially by the garbage media here in Philly, but will always remember him for laying out Crosby and then scoring a minute later in that playoff series.

  9. Great video. Been Flyers fan since 95. Giroux and John Leclair were my two favs. Id love to see him win one, if he stayed with Florida he prolly would have

  10. Big Flyers fan here and a huge Claude Grioux guy…. theres a lot of misinformation in here. Stop using AI and just do some actual research. Its not all wrong, but theres a lot of botched info in here.

  11. I remember like it was yesterday when Philly beat Pittsburgh in 2018 and then lost to Tampa Bay, except for the part where that never happened.

  12. Great premise for a video….too bad it's AI garbage. Saying names completely wrong, getting things factually wrong while skipping over actual key moments of his career. All this talk of heartbreak and never winning a cup, but never mention the 2010 Finals they lost, especially his GWG in the shootout in the finale to actually make the playoffs, and his shift during the 3-0 comeback in Game 7 against Boston when he himself held off 3 bruins and burned off almost 30 seconds to help them hold the lead. Philly beat Pitt in 6 games in 2012, and Game 7 in 2014 was not lost in OT. And 2018 (sigh) where is this information from? They lost in 6 in round 1 to Pittsburgh, the entire section about playing Tampa in round 2 is a total lie.

  13. G was a Robin, & the organization/critics expected him to be batman. He shouldered a lot of the blame for what imo were unfair expectations. It baffles me why they never could bring him an elite/similiar level iq batman. He would've soared. Sometimes, I wish he would've pulled a Marner and demanded a trade while he was still in his young prime. I can't stand when organizations waste talent.

  14. Ahahaha…. Crosby is still a million times better, 3 cups to prove it!

    20 minutes of the same 5 highlights of his life lol. Can tell a Philly fan made this video. "Crosby rarely gives other players compliments". Total BS, Sid is a class act and always gives credit where due.

    Calling Giroux a hall of fame player and saying he outplayed Ovi and Sid, maybe 1 or 2 games each over his entire career.

    What Giroux will always be known for – being arrested for sexually groping a male police officer

  15. Nope 
.. not buying this. Good player
. Lousy captain
. Couldn’t take a hit.

  16. Worst captain in flyers history, overrated. Captained the worst stretch in flyers history and completely stripped them of any culture. Got punked by Crosby to.

  17. Incompetent mangement (Hextall) who couldn't figure out how to build around him AND partially G's own fault for not going to a legit contender when he had the chance. He had offers, & chose the Sens(then he did it again with what will likely be his last season or 2). He wanted to be home. I'd love to see G finally get a cup, but it is what it is. The sens cracked the playoffs and have potential, but they're still developing.

  18. Some of your info is incorrect, we beat the Pens in 6 games. I would check the video for a few errors.

  19. When he leveled Crosby then scored like 30 seconds later in the 1st period in the playoffs was the 2nd greatest thing I ever saw. 1st was seeing game 5 of the Eastern conference finals in 89 when Hexy trashed Chelios. I was in section 19 of the old Spectrum for that and it was awesome.

  20. If you are going to have AI, write your script, at least fact check the results. This revisionist history is absolutely insane and insulting to hockey fans.

  21. Claude Giroux does not care about winning.
    He had a free ride to Colorado or Florida in 2022. He chose Florida to stay closer to the East coast and enjoy some nice whether. Sure, Florida was atop the East at the time but anyone who knows puck knew Colorado was the playoff wagon that year. As fate would have it, Florida got swept in the second round and the Avs lifted the Cup. The ol' President's Trophy curse. On its own, that isn't terrible. He still got traded to a first place team.
    But what was his next move? He signed with the non contending senators because he wanted to go home and he's been there since. A 33 year old premiere NHL talent would rather pack it in than go somewhere he can compete for a Cup.
    Did the Flyers fail him? Absolutely. Has "G" proven he has what it takes to win otherwsie? Absolutely not.
    King of the secondary powerplay assist though. I'll give him that.
