People want to trade 24 year old Hamilton, but it's silly to trade 34 year old Gio....

I keep Hamilton over Gio every day, especially with the young core of this team.
This is also a good point. If the Flames could actually get a similarly elite defenceman to Giordano, who is years younger, I think they do it. But that's probably not going to happen. However, Marc Bergevin did trade PK Subban for Shea Weber so you never know.
