People need to chill out.

Gio is a UFA. He's not obligated to sign any extentions at all.

We can easily play out this season without any trades or signings, and then let the market dictate his value in the 2016 offseason.

This is a player who wants to finish his career in Calgary, well let's see if he holds up to his end of the deal.

His agent is asking high, and I'm sure treliving is on the other end offering low enough to justify the term. They will either meet at the middle now, or wait til market indicates Gio's value. And Gio is not going to go wherever the money is either as a UFA.. He's going to consider factors that work for him.

Quit rippin' our team's aptain on the first damn day he is eligible for an extension. He's a year away from free agency.
