For the record, I'm not there myself, based on the returns floating around I'd love to keep Hamilton, but the above is the logic behind entertaining a trade with him.
If the logic is we can't have 3 number one defencemen then I think you have to trade Giordano. He's got a bigger contract, is older and will likely be declining just when Hamilton is hitting his prime. For the record I don't want to trade either of Gio or Hamilton.
