Philadelphia Flyers forward Claude Giroux slipped the game-winning goal past Matt Murray, earning a win over Pittsburgh in the 2019 Stadium Series. Giroux had not picked up a point in his previous four games, the longest such scoreless streak of the season for him, but his pair of points Saturday gives him 63 points on the season. Back above a point per game pace, Giroux is continuing to show that while last year's spike in points was not sustainable, he is more than capable of being a regular top-end offensive producer. His power-play production has taken a dip, however, as have most of the Flyers, which could be more of a concern if top power-play linemate Wayne Simmonds is shipped out of town at the deadline. Giroux is on pace for his lowest power-play point total since the 2012-2013 season and losing Simmonds would not help that.--Russ Ivanac - RotoBaller
