↖ Halloween Giroux Card

Claude Giroux Halloween-themed card in NHL 24 HUT is a significant addition to your team. Despite not being the largest player on the ice, Giroux possesses valuable abilities that make him a standout choice. With Silver Quick Draw, Giroux excels in faceoffs, a crucial aspect of the game, especially when you're in Superstar mode. Silver Quick Draw allows you to win more faceoffs by snapping back the puck faster.

 

Furthermore, Giroux comes with the Born Leader ability, which gets a substantial boost in NHL 24. This ability provides an energy boost for big hits and blocked shots. Given the revamped hitting mechanics in NHL 24, Born Leader can be a game-changer. Combine this with Giroux's 90-speed acceleration, agility, high-80 shot, 90 hand stat, and a whopping 90 on faceoffs, and you've got one of the top centermen in the game.
