I agree that Gio probably won't have more value than he currently holds, but I think we need to keep him for his leadership abilities. Being as competitive as possible through this rebuild might stop us from picking 1st overall next year, but it does wonders for the development of guys like Monahan, Brodie etc..

Gio for 5 years or McDavid for 15 years. You make the call.
