Without a doubt, trading Gio would be suicide... maybe even wreck your team psyche and balance for years. i.e. going full Oiler
But, Ekblad is said to be the next Drew Doughty....
Personally, I lean towards the "no i would not do the trade" ...... but makes me wonder if we are stuck in the same mindset of Iginla.
