I don't think it is just one player. From Treliving's interviews and his activity over the course of his tenure we can see that he prioritizes 1) centre depth, and 2) a strong defense.

*EDIT* To continue with your point, it looks to me as though management is laying the groundwork for a transition plan for when Giordano's age becomes a factor. The team is not "tied" to any individual player. I expect that Treliving believes they can continue to be highly competitive beyond the next five years.
