Philadelphia Flyers left wing Scott Hartnell fell for a worthy cause. Prior to Sunday's All-Star Game, Hartnell vowed to donate $1,000 for every time he hit the ice. Well, Hartnell unofficially fell four times during the exhibition and will sign a $4,000 check for charity. In fact, Flyers teammate Claude Giroux did his best to get Hartnell off his feet - despite the fact that...

Tim Panaccio: What Amazed Giruox

Via HockeyBuzz  |  January 29, 2012

Sunday Afternoon team Chara took on Team Alfredsson in what was supposed to be a fun-spirited All-Star event. For the most part, the players had fun, enjoyed themselves and put on a good show for the fans, but one incident will leave a bad taste in the mouths of many NHL fans and the fans of the Toronto Maple Leafs. With many players wearing microphones for the duration of the game...

Flyers All-Star Claude Giroux in the mix with NHL's best

Via Washington Times  |  January 27, 2012
OTTAWA — Claude Giroux is tired of the story at this point. At the 2006 NHL draft, then-Philadelphia Flyers general manager Bobby Clarke forgot the name of the player he was taking 22nd overall. Bobby Sanguinetti, the New Jersey defenseman the Flyers coveted, went off the board a pick earlier. ...

I remember that playoff series against Pittsburgh in 2009 when Ed Snider walked into the Flyers dressing room afterward. The FLyers chairman wasn't happy with the playoff loss but he said the future really looked bright and pointed to Claude Giroux as the team's next super star. A few years later, Giroux has emerged as the face of the franchise, a player who is loved...
