Even if Giroux didn't give his "ok" for Chuck Fletcher to trade him, we all know that his time in Philadelphia is coming to an end. Every time he talks, you can just feel in his words that he is aware of his situation and that a departure is inevitable.
It was the case during an interview with journalist Emily Kaplan.

"It was a hell of a ride. I got the chance to play with some great players, and the fans are absolutely nuts. It's been a blast."

He also shared his feelings about all the trade rumours surrounding him, and it's clearly something he doesn't like.
"It's tough, I mean, when you've been with only one team your whole career, it's just weird. As the time goes here, we'll be able to have a few meetings with the Flyers and see what the plan is."
