Seriously??? Giroux owned Crosby last year. Crosby whines non stop. Even tort agreed. Just watch first shift of game 6. Basically explains which player is better

You mean the Crosby that didn't play all year last year because of a concussion and played in the playoffs? Please I am not even going to get into an assinine argument over who is the better player. Ask anyone outside Philly and you know the answer.

Claude Giroux has never scored more than 28 goals in a season. Never scored more than 93 points in a season. Sidney Crosby has scored 100 pts 4 times and has had a 50 goal season. Crosby averages 1.4 pts per game. Giroux averages .85. Don't let facts get in the way of your argument. The Pens have 2 players better than Giroux.

Claude giroux has been a first liner one year. He plays all special teams. He's a play maker. He doesn't get huge state but he is not out manned. He straight up owned Malkin and Crosby last year. You guys traded your MVP in Jordan staal

Yes Giroux had a good year and a good "series" against the Pens. Fleury helped Giroux look good in that series. Giroux has never led his team to a cup let alone win it. Crosby has done so twice. If they ever agree to play this year, we will see what happens.

What about three years ago? He was a major factor on that team. In fact he made more of a difference against blackhawks than Crosby against red wings. Look at those series your best players were Talbot fluery and staal. Only big time moment he made was the one for Olympics gold. He crumbles in tough situations

Looks like he didn't make enough of a difference based on the fact the Flyers haven't won a Stanley Cup in your lifetime.

Give it three years. I guarantee one cup at least. He makes enough of a difference go further than Crosby anymore

Malkin is the best player in the NHL.
