I have a scar on my nose from when I fell from standing on a Greco pizza counter in St. John’s. My dads was 20 and making a living before joining the RCMP. My 19 year old mom was bringing me by for a visit. I was 2 years old.

True story.

A lot of people probably would not guess it!

he was 4th in scoring in the 2010's decade . Only recorded 16 less points than Crosby in that time period.

Pure stud

Fired a plus 8 today at the golf tourney with the pro golfers on the Canada tour.
Brad Fritcsh was plus 1.

Giroux has been a great NHL player & captain & most likely a future HOF candidate.

A certainty to get in. And he's not done yet if last year is an indication.

 

[swiftwin]

It's no fluke that Giroux got a career high in goals last year, at 35 years old. He's an incredibly smart and crafty player. He should continue age gracefully, much like Pavelski has. It's funny that those two got 1000 points on the same night last year.

If I was the script writer, I'd make sure we see a Dallas-Ottawa Stanley Cup final in 2025.

 

[shipwreck]

Inarguably the worst org in the league as far as quality, competency, and likability goes.

Everything has gone downhill since Hextall got fired and the parasite advisors (Clarke, Barber, Lombardi) regained control.

Yea, I've been a huge Flyers fan for over a decade. I give up. I just can't watch them any longer. It is too maddening.

Those mini-gold sticks seem like a nice gesture until you find out that they were left over from when the Senators thought Cory Conacher would score 1000 points.

Former captain doubles down on the fans. Former captain exposes himself to darts from fans for backing his coach.

Good for him. Rally the troops and bring the team closer . Us against the World!

Hate on him next fans!

the hater fans are really proving to be troublesome for Ottawa.

New targets every time someone leaves the organization.

The softest , most insecure group of fans in the NHL

Is there a link? What did he say?

 

[Golden_Jet]

Claude was pretty definitive DJ wasn’t going anywhere, sounds like SS might have told the team that. Would make sense if he did, as he said after PD gone, Sens need some stability now.

Saw it on X.

Basically saying it is getting old with the fans getting on DJ. He backs his captain and he backs his coach.

It's not the players it is the coach.

Interesting.

Do either Brady or G elaborate on why they can't win games?

We can only assume they think they need better players. Surely, they can't expect to use puck luck or whatever as a reason?

If it's not coaching and not the roster there aren't many options.

Oh it is the coaching.

I just like the way they are sticking together.

And we all know it is the bounces

There's something to be said for the room sticking together... I'd rather this than a shit ton of infighting or public mud slinging.

Now, it's up to them to take that and turn the ship around. The core isn't stupid - they know change is coming this summer, whether they want it or not, and if they are as close as they seem to be as a group, they know that change will reach into the room if things don't improve.

Looking by the standings they need wins more than anything I'd say

Very good point, I'd rather have a team that has each other's back then a knife ready to stab each other in the back.

Bobby Ryan made a good point, players comments right after a game is one thing, but Giroux saying this in a media availability on an off day, this was calculated.
