He really is night and day difference when you think back to how he looked before he left for Russia. It was hard to imagine back then that he'd get to the level he plays at today as he just didn't seem to have the talent or think the game at the level he does.
Really awesome progression and definitely the heart and soul of this team. The thing with Giordano is he really does think the game at a high level and you see it with the patience he shows in the offensive zone when under pressure. Doesn't panic and shows a lot of creativity where most other players just end up throwing the puck away to be safe.
