I just hope Gio doesn't suffer a fluke injury down the stretch and is able to take his game to even the next level in the playoffs. I cringed when he blocked that shot vs the Isles near the end last game. But that just goes to show the type of player he is.
The man deserves to have a good cup run on his resume.
