Hard to imagine after the last couple of years but the +/- leader is Brodie

Two years ago was funny. Most of Brodie's minuses were games where Chad Johnson was standing on his head, then Brodie would come on the ice and he would let in a softie from a bad angle. That or Dennis Wideman would get walked, and then Chad Johnson would let in a softie. I bet you Brodie was an plus in front of Elliott. It's a pretty garbage stat for that reason(and for the fact that it punishes PPQBs in 1D 4F setups), but while we're on it:
Brodie was also +4 in 2015-16 the same season Giordano was -5.
Brodie sat at +27 52 games into the 2014-15 season, Giordano was +19 at the same point. He played LD after Gio's injury and with a vastly inferior partner in Engelland so he slipped to +15. But he did lead the team in playoff +/- at +3
Getting Brodie back on the right was definitely a positive decision though. A common sense on if you ask me.
