Claude Giroux's NHL career and contract details

Claude Giroux has long been a reliable scorer for the Philadelphia Flyers and is one of the team's Stanley Cup Playoff point leaders. Notably, Giroux was selected with the No. 22 pick in the 2006 NHL Draft, but then-general manager Bobby Clarke forgot to mention his name.

Claude Giroux has come a long way since then. On January 15, 2013, he was named the 19th captain in Flyers history, and in addition to his scoring ability, he has become one of the NHL's best face-offs. Giroux won 58.0 percent of his draws in 2018-19, his eighth consecutive season winning at least 52 percent.

Giroux was named an NHL Second-Team All-Star and finished fourth in the voting for the Hart Trophy, given to the league's most valuable player. He played his 1,000th NHL game, all for the Flyers, on March 17, 2022, in a 5-4 win over the Nashville Predators at Wells Fargo Center, becoming the team's second player to do so, joining Hockey Hall of Famer Bobby Clarke (1,144).

After 15 NHL seasons with the Flyers, including the last ten as captain, Giroux was traded to the Florida Panthers for forward Owen Tippett, a first-round pick in the 2024 NHL Draft and the 2025 NHL Draft, and a third-round pick in the 2023 NHL Draft.

On July 13, 2022, Claude Giroux signed a three-year, $19.5 million contract with the Ottawa Senators, ending an eight-year contract.
