Good on you for speaking up.

I still find your trade to be ridiculous. I wouldn't trade Gio straight up for #1, let alone adding one of our top prospects to take on cap-dump Brian Campbell. I would MAYBE do Gio for both, but I doubt Florida would and I personally think trading Giordano is the height of stupidity.

I understand the want/need to buy low/sell high, which is great stock advice, but it doesn't take into account Giordano's positive impact on the team as a whole and not just as a point-getting asset.
