The current general consensus sounds like Giordano is considered an untouchable and cannot be traded.

Am I misinformed on these two statements?
Why the difference?
Primarily the teams are in much different positions. Iginla's Flames were holding onto the dream of the old core and a bubble spot in the standings. Gio's Flames are early in a rebuild.

What are your thoughts, though. Do you think Gio should be traded now? Giving how you allude to Iginla staying on too long it would seem that's what you're hinting at. Personally I'm much happier with him here, leading the young players.
