A big part of the leadership problem with the Flames rests firmly on Giordano's shoulders. You want to give him a pass? Fine. I'm not prepared to do so. I expect him to be calling out the vets, too.

Please. You have no idea what was said behind closed doors.

sums up many of the wild over-reactions in this thread.
Taking an inane comment that was obviously aimed at not sparking further controversy and extrapolating how it reflects on someone's overall character is a massive, overdramatic leap.
We have nowhere near enough concrete information to start suggesting Giordano's captaincy should be threatened. That's just crazy.
This is a young team battling in a league with strong parity at the mid-way point of the season. This manufactured notion something is rotten to the core and someone needs to pay a price is just bizarre.
