Ottawa Senators' player Claude Giroux has been nominated for the Bill Masterton Trophy for his perseverance, sportsmanship, and dedication to hockey.
The 36-year-old Giroux was elected as the Senators’ nominee for the Bill Masterton Trophy in voting done by the Ottawa chapter of the Professional Hockey Writers’ Association.The Masterton Trophy is awarded annually to the player who best exemplifies the qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey — and Giroux possesses those qualities in his approach.
He has 20 goals and 60 points this season, has been one of the best free-agent signings this club has ever had and he isn’t showing any sign of slowing down. Chabot was one of the last players off the ice Thursday and didn’t suit up versus the Florida, but if he doesn’t face the Devils, he’ll likely play Sunday in Washington.
“It’s the same as any other injury and that’s what happened here. We’re being a bit more careful this time around.”
