The Flyers were an inconsistent team for the bulk of the 2009–10 season, which affected all of their players. Giroux spent a large amount of time centring James van Riemsdyk, the highly touted rookie winger that the Flyers had drafted second overall in 2007. The Flyers’ fortunes, however, soon turned dramatically: they qualified for the 2010 playoffs on Giroux’s game-winner in a shootout against the New York Rangers. Giroux was a major point producer in a first round of the playoffs, dismantling the second-seeded New Jersey Devils. The Flyers made an historic comeback from three games to none down against the Boston Bruins to win the next four and advance to the Eastern Conference Final, where they dominated the Montreal Canadiens. Giroux scored the winning goal in overtime against the Chicago Blackhawks in Game 3 of the 2010 Stanley Cup Final, but despite his continued production, the Flyers eventually lost in overtime in Game 6 of the Final. Giroux ended the post- season with 21 playoff points, cementing his reputation as an emerging young talent.
