Former teammates Claude Giroux and Jaromir Jagr aren’t about some international competition get in the way of fun.

Giroux received an unexpected push from behind from his ex-Flyers pal Jagr while participating in an interview with a Swedish television network at the 2015 IIHF World Hockey Championship.

Giroux and Team Canada handed Jagr’s Czech Republic a 6-3 loss in round-robin play at the tournament in Prague Monday.

“He’s a funny guy,” Giroux said after nearly bumping into a camera courtesy of Jagr. Yes he is, Claude. Yes he is.

Giroux and Jagr played together in 2011-12 when they formed a very effective line along with Scott Hartnell.
