There could not have been a more fitting player to open the scoring in the 2017-2018 season for the Philadelphia Flyers.

On Wednesday night the Flyers faced off against the San Jose Sharks in their season opener, and thanks in large part to Sharks goaltender Martin Jones, the Flyers were the first  to put a point on the scoreboard. 

That goal came from none other than Flyers' captain Claude Giroux who has seemingly transitioned over to the wing from center, and while this was an unforced error from Jones, it's paying off early for Giroux.

Here's the goal.
