Oh captain, my captain!
The Philadelphia Flyers will honour their longtime captain Claude Giroux with a commemorative jersey patch and matching warmup jerseys tonight against the Nashville Predators in honour of the 1000th game of his career.
The patch features Giroux’s jersey number 28 in orange with the Flyers primary logo placed on top of it in the middle, Giroux’s autograph is stitched in white and the note “1,000 NHL GAMES PLAYED” has been added below in white. The entire patch is on black trimmed with white.
