His 903rd career game tied him with Bill Barber for most in the regular season with Philadelphia. He also had three assists in his return from a coronavirus absence to lead the Flyers over the New York Rangers 4-3 on Wednesday night. “Surprised would be an understatement,” coach Alain Vigneault said. “I didn’t really know what to expect, but you could tell early on he had his game tonight.” Giroux, who played his first game since Feb. 7, led the Flyers with eight shots on goal, 12 total shot attempts, three points and was 8 of 11 on faceoffs. “This was one of his better games all year,” Vigneault said.
