Quoting: Snowball
Looks to be about what I expecte, thanks for insight.
I just heard FLA was #1 destination. And only other true possibility was COL. He’s rumored to have denied BOS and NYR trades. I don’t see MIN being option and I know we’ve heard STL in the past but I don’t see that happening
I would think COL could beat that offer from FLA but I guess we will see soon enough
I dont think theres been any real insight abot who he has waived to or not, and it wouldn;t be in PHI's, or any teams interest to say they are or they aren;t in the bidding, because it shows their hand in other potential trades. (FLA being the frontrunner rumour puts some pressure on TB and CAR, who might/might not be on Giroux's list, but might have to inquire or go after other guys to compete.)
As long time captain of PHI, I could see him not wanting to go to a place where hes a third liner OR to a team he doesn;t want to, (so I'm thinking TOR, NYR and PIT in the east are out), but hes pretty good friends with Ovechkin so its possible that BOS and WAS might be in.
Theres 3 days to go and the team/Giroux haven;t said anything other than he wont play the next 2 games until Monday's deadline, so while theres 2 rumoured high bidders NOW (Colorado and Florida presumably), theres nothing to say that who he has/hasnt waived to.
Im thinking STL (with former coach Berube), MIN, WAS, TB, CAR might be on his list.
