Islanders' offense dries up in tight loss to new-look Flyers

Giroux was dealt to Florida on Saturday for former first-round pick Owen Tippett, a conditional 2024 first-round pick and a 2023 third-round pick.

Giroux, who was drafted in the first round by the Flyers in 2006 and named their 19th captain on Jan. 15, 2013, ranks second in club history with 900 points. He joined Hall of Famer Bobby Clarke as the only Flyers to play in 1,000 regular-season games with the team in an emotional 5-4 comeback victory over Nashville on Thursday. The Flyers never were able to win a Cup with Giroux, though they did reach the finals in 2010 among his 85 playoff contests.

Tippett was in the lineup against the Islanders and had several near-misses to get his first point with the Flyers, clanging a hard wrister from the slot off the post six minutes into the second period and taking the initial shot but not getting credited with an assist on Hayes' second tally. The No. 10 overall pick in 2017, Tippett had six goals and eight assists in 42 games this season with Florida and 33 points over 94 career NHL games.
