Not going to be popular but going back to Brent Sutter this organization has built blue lines that look good on paper but stink on the ice. Only two players have been along for the entire stint and I believe it's time to move on from one or both of them including Giordano who's still a good defender but has been a key cog in team failure over the years long before Johnny and Monahan were part of the team. I just think it's time to turn a new leaf with a new team captain and out with defensemen that have never proven to be part of a solution.
It would be a massive mistake to move on from some of the best forwards this organization has drafted in their history without going clean slate in the underperforming defense core.

Giordano is the best player on the team. This isn't his fault.
