brelic Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Uh oh. I used to live where this happened. Pack up his things and trade him to LA. http://www.ottawasun.com/2014/07/02/philadelphia-flyers-star-claude-giroux-arrested-in-ottawa Philadelphia Flyers star Claude Giroux spent the night in an Ottawa Police cell after an incident involving a police officer, sources tell the Sun. Although few details were immediately available, a source said Giroux was arrested for repeatedly grabbing the buttocks of a male police officer. Alcohol is believed to have been involved. The incident occurred at a bar in the Byward Market the source said. Ottawa Police have refused any comment on the incident. Police said they cannot comment unless charges are laid, but several sources did confirm to the Sun Giroux spent the night in jail. Sources say he is expected to be released without any criminal charges. The 26-year-old Giroux was reportedly seen inside a police cruiser in Ottawa sometime around 9 p.m. on July 1. A Twitter post by shaheed09 reads "Claude Giroux in the back of a cop car downtown Ottawa". it was posted to Twitter Tuesday at 9:19 p.m. Giroux is a native of Hearst in Northern Ontario, but has lived in the Ottawa area for the past several years. He starred with the Gatineau Olympique of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League before joining the Philadelphia Flyers organization in 2006. He was signed by the Flyers in 2007 and most recently, got an eight-year contract from the team in 2013. During the 2013-14 season, Giroux scored 28 goals, 58 assists for 86 points. He was third in the NHL points race. He is a two-time NHL all-star. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertmega Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) So he's playing a little grab a$$? My goodness a "MALE OFFICER"? F'n fudgie caught doing a little frottage. There was a guy I knew who used to do that in clubs to girls, you know walk by and brush their butts with his hands. Well turns out he was a serial rapist that is spending a LONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG time in jail. Not saying Giroux was or is that, but he definitely is guilty of a little grab a$$.

Canada Day is no different than your national holiday. Drinking, fireworks, concerts, a$$-grabbing. You know, the usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyercanuck Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 From DGGs post in the shoutbox...."Giroux, 26, is known for his crack offense, always finding a hole, and firm defense, always applying backside pressure. He’s beloved by Flyers fans for his cheeky disposition and for always giving their opponents a handful." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyercanuck Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 @sarsippius May be gender preference....or may be hammered on Canada Day with his friends trying to get a laugh and went too far. Either way, he'll have to live with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
