NHL trade rumors for March 24, 2022 features Claude Giroux signing with the Ottawa Senators in the offseason.

Everyone knew Claude Giroux would be traded at the NHL trade deadline and most NHL analysts figured it would be the Florida Panthers he would sign with.

Elliotte Friedman on his 32 Thoughts blog stated the Panthers were not the only team interested in a Giroux trade. The Colorado Avalanche, Boston Bruins and New York Rangers all called the Flyers to see if Giroux would accept a trade to one of those destinations but Giroux only wanted to play for Florida for a Stanley Cup run.

Friedman went on to say, he believes Claude Giroux is doing his research on the Ottawa Senators, and that is the team he will sign with and play for next season until he retires.

Giroux was drafted 22nd overall by the Philadelphia Flyers in the 1st round of the 2006 entry draft. Over a career that spans 15 seasons, he has a total 900 points in 1000 games played, and 73 playoff points in 85 games played.
