The Famous Claude Giroux Sign Girl Speaks

Via Buzz On Broad  |  January 18, 2012
Last night, a girl in the front row held a sign that got Claude Giroux's attention. The video of her flipping out when G came over to the glass made its way around the internet. Her name? Brandi Johnson. Brandi let us know that she was a big fan of the site and that she reads it everyday. To that, we said thank you. In addition, she answered a few questions for us about her encounter...

Claude Giroux fights?!?

Via All Things Philly Sports  |  January 19, 2012
The Flyers played one of their worst games of the season on Thursday night, losing to the Islanders 4-1, but there was one interesting development in the game: Claude Giroux fought: He certainly is much better with the stick than the fists. Perhaps this will help him snap out of his offensive funk.

Giroux Scores 200th NHL Point; Flyers Dominate Wild 5-1

Via Buzz On Broad  |  January 17, 2012
Wells Fargo Center- Earlier this week, Peter Laviolette spoke about his team's upcoming schedule, and how they could possibly make up some ground in the standings with 11 of their next 15 games coming at home. It certainly seemed like the Flyers had a home-ice advantage tonight as they defeated the Minnesota Wild at the Wells Fargo Center by a score of 5-1. They are now 6-1-0...

Sidney Crosby visits concussion specialist in Atlanta

Via Post-Gazette  |  January 17, 2012
Penguins center and captain Sidney Crosby left the team to see concussion specialist Ted Carrick in Atlanta. Top defenseman Kris Letang was medically cleared to play after a concussion and will return to the lineup soon. From general manager Ray Shero's perspective, those are equally welcome developments. Shero on Monday called Crosby's time with Carrick "a good thing."

Sidney Crosby's return date remains unknown, but the Pittsburgh Penguins found out earlier this week they can expect one of their other key contributors back soon from a concussion. That return may come as soon as Thursday night. Out since late November, defenseman Kris Letang could be back as the Penguins visit Madison Square Garden looking to win their fourth straight overall...

The Philadelphia Flyers are frustrated, but they're trying to remain positive. Some production from Claude Giroux could go a long way in assuring a lift in morale. Giroux attempts to end his longest goal drought of the season when the visiting Flyers try to rebound from a disappointing loss Saturday against the New Jersey Devils. Philadelphia (27-14-4) is in the midst of a...

Crosby, we hope, has much more to give hockey, and in a perfect world, the concussion woes never return after he’s shaken this latest nightmare. But it doesn’t take much imagination to envision a different picture, of a diminished, cautious Crosby returning whenever he decides he’s able, but never again quite as recklessly exuberant and commanding on the ice as...
