When the Florida Panthers went out and acquired Claude Giroux from the Philadelphia Flyers, they knew it was possible that it would only be a rental and that he may leave in free agency in July.
On Wednesday, Giroux told TSN's Pierre LeBrun that he is interested in remaining a Florida Panther and that he came to the Sunshine State to win a Stanley Cup.
"It definitely would interest me," Giroux said. "Since the first day I got here, from my teammates to the organization, it was a great experience. Obviously, it helps when you're winning a lot of hockey games. The full experience for me and my family, the organization did an unbelievable job."
He added, "Yeah. I came to Florida to win a Cup. Obviously we weren't able to do that. But at the same time, I think we learned a lot from the Washington series and also the Tampa series. We'll see how the next month goes, but excited to see what's going to happen here."
The Hearst (Ontario) native played quite well in his brief time with the Panthers after his trade from Philadelphia. In eighteen regular season games, he put up 23 points (three goals, 20 assists) and added eight points in ten playoff games.
