LAS VEGAS — While the All-Star Game has no impact on the standings, Flyers and Metropolitan Division captain Claude Giroux brought the intensity and the scoring skills he’s displayed all season long.
Giroux scored twice in the final of the Metropolitan Division’s 5-3 victory over the Central Division and once in the semifinal against the Pacific Division on Saturday at the T-Mobile Arena. His efforts earned him the tournament’s most valuable player, as he finished the day with three goals and one assist.
“We had a blast today,” Giroux said. “Everybody was having a good time. Started with the coach and just guys were yelling to play defense and win battles, block shots. We just had fun today.”
