  • Senators' Claude Giroux: Sets new career high in goals

    Giroux scored his 35th goal of the season in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sabres.

Giroux was rejuvenated by his move to the Senators -- the 35-year-old's 35 goals are a career high, topping the 34 he scored back in 2017-18 for Philly, and his 79 points is his best total since 2018-19.

  • Senators' Claude Giroux: Dealing with illness

    Giroux is under the weather and missed practice Wednesday, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

    Giroux is currently stuck in a nine-game goal drought but has racked up 28 shots and five assists over that stretch. Despite the goal slump, the veteran should be capable of offering top-half fantasy value if he can suit up versus the Flyers on Thursday. If not, Mathieu Joseph or Drake Batherson could be in line for a promotion to the top trio.
