Claude Giroux is a Philadelphia Flyers legend, and when he was traded from the Flyers back in the 2021-22 season, it was major news. However, there was a potential scenario where Giroux would have been headed to a different home, in a trade that involved other assets.
Elliotte Friedman has revealed the details of one of that potential trade between the Philadelphia Flyers and the Colorado Avalanche which involved three first-round picks.
The Senators are happy that they eventually landed Giroux after his brief stint with Florida, as he has been able to provide a veteran presence to the young Senators as they continue their rebuild. Last season he showed that he hasn't lost a step, scoring 35 goals and 44 assists for 89 points.
Both Giroux and Sens fans should be happy that he is in a place to help lead the helm through their rebuild, all while contributing to the Sens' production as well.
