If Gio was playing like last season Gio I don't think his name would be brought up as much, if at all. But that extension is looking a bit scary. Hopefully he's just working out some kinks and gets back to that form soon so that contract doesn't look so daunting.

I know it is frustrating the "what have you done for me lately" mentality is strong in some posters. Gio is coming back from a really major injury and does not look like himself. This is a player that many in the media had as a top 25 player in the league. A few bad games is not going to erase that opinion for me.
I do get it though younger = better when a team is rebuilding like the Flames are.
