Giroux named NHL All-Star MVP

The NHL tabbed Claude Giroux as its All-Star MVP on Saturday.

The Philadelphia Flyers captain collected three goals and an assist over two games - including a pair of markers in the final - to lead the Metropolitan Division to the title.

Giroux is the third Flyer to earn the award, joining Reggie Leach in 1980 and Wayne Simmonds in 2017.

The forward's future in Philadelphia is unclear as he's a pending unrestricted free agent. Giroux has spent his entire 15-year career with the Flyers, who drafted him 22nd overall in 2006.

Giroux ranks second all time in games played, assists, and points for Philly. He also sits ninth in goals. The 34-year-old has 15 markers and 20 helpers in 42 contests this season.
