It's funny. I see him as this very old man still playing a young mans game and yet he's younger than I am still having children ffs.
A horrible part of getting old is realising your current sports hero's are f***ing kids...

It also ruined my gettimg signed in the NHL fantasy as I am now more of a coaching age....

Good game last night.

I know he is going to fade, but I think we need to keep remembering what a unit this guy is.

We are so fortunate that he came home to play here. So much skill and veteran savvy, plus enough intensity for him and Bobby Ryan.

This was his best game so far this year IMO. The only one on the team who was calm enough under pressure, and knew what to do to slow the game down when it needed it the most.

With Giroux, I get the sense that he's not going to bust it out 110% for a team that isn't showing signs of going anywhere.

He turned it off halfway through last season when the writing was on the wall, and he's only really getting going now that there are signs that this team can be competitive.

I really think he paces himself a bit knowing that he only has so much mileage left.
