It would be a disaster, not just on the ice but from a public relations standpoint. The Flames would essentially be turning their backs on the team leader and a face of the franchise in the community. To the team they'd be saying that one of their hardest most respected workers wasn't worth even the consideration of being involved in moving him to a team/location of his choosing if they wanted out of the deal.
Now, if Gio phones it in next season and becomes a player he currently isn't to a shocking degree then maybe I will have a different opinion.
