Thats why Giroux has been ranked as one of the best defensive forwards in the game, top 10. This isnt just my opinion, but players in the league that take votes and PROFESSIONAL hockey analyst who arent drinking the orange kool-aid. - GOA88
I cant wait to read this!

He couldn't crack Bleacher Report's top 10, or even their honorable mentions.
For the record, it is Bleacher Report. But I do agree with most of their choices, although I'd have Richie in the top 5 and not as a HM. |

I know it's an imperfect stat, but if you look at takeaways/game/time on ice (takeaways/average TOI), he's 4th on the team behind Couturier (1.64), Jake (1.22), Schenn (1.22). He's at 0.80. For a comparison, Datsyuk is at 2.78 and bergeron is at 1.20. |

So I may be remissed, but doesnt drinking the "orange kool-aid" usually pertain to those who have lofty, unsubstantiated, and often ridiculous opinions due to a certain bias? Hmm.. thats totally me. |

I just saw that we traded him and Brendl to Carolina for Sami Kapanen and Ryan Bast. Hell of a trade. |

Does that make it an opinion? Which, btw, is fine. If you believe G to be one of the best 2 way players.. more power to ya... I just cant even begin to agree. |
