Claude Giroux pots game winner as Ottawa Senators edge visiting New York Islanders
Claude Giroux’s game-winning goal Wednesday night likely won’t stand out in his mind, but you can bet Ridly Greig will never forget it.
Greig’s debut was impressive as he had eight shots on goal, tying the record for most shots on goal in an NHL debut. His defensive game was also impressive. “He’s fun to play with,” said Giroux. “His game is very mature. I remember my first game, mentally I wasn’t very there so it’s pretty impressive the way he was playing and winning puck battles and we had a good time.”
The Islanders continue to struggle as their winless streak reached six games . Brock Nelson scored the lone goal for New York, while Semyon Varlamov stopped 36 shots. “I thought we played well,” said Forsberg. “I thought we fought hard all game for this team. We just stayed with it the whole game and I think that’s the biggest part and I think that’s what we have to do moving forward here to get some more wins.”
