That's a bit of a hasty conclusion to say that because I'm wrong about Giordano I'm wrong about all of my rankings.
I live in Abbotsford where I don't get to see very many Flames games, so I when I speak on Giordano, I use information I've
seen and
heard from last year - and last year Giordano wasn't doing as well as he is this season. In fact, it seems to me that a large amount of people on this forum considered Gio expendable during the last off-season.
After watching a few of the Flames games I am able to see, I can see now that Giordano is heads and shoulders above what he used to be. However, when I started this thread, from what I saw, Giordano wasn't any better than the other 3 bottom defensmen (Pardy, Johnson, Kronwall).
On the other hand, I am able to see every Heat home game if I wish to do so. Therefore, I'm fairly confident in what I've said about the prospects.
