A former team Team Captain, Giroux would break out in the 2010-11 season with a 76 Point year that saw him receive a sprinkling of Lady Byng and Frank J. Selke Trophy voting and the year after he scored 93 Points with a third-place finish in Points and fourth in Hart Trophy voting.
Giroux would establish himself as a Point per Game player and one of the more complete players in Professional Hockey. He finished third in Hart balloting in the 2013-14 season but arguably the 2017-18 (where he was fourth in Hart Trophy voting) was more dynamic as he would lead the NHL in Assists, net his first 100 Point season, and a Second Team All-Star.
As good as Giroux was, the Flyers struggled and went into rebuilding mode in 2022, and he was traded to the Florida Panthers for their playoff run. With Philadelphia, Giroux had an even 900 Points.
