I love Gio and how he represents the club. If his career ended tomorrow (which would be tragic) I'm not sure where I'd have him in all time Flames. Certainly top 5 in defensemen, along with Chopper, Reinhart, Regehr and Suter. Gio's playoff record works against him and fact that that his best finish in Norris voting was 6th.

Now assuming the year finishes out the way it should and his career finishes out the way it should, I could see him going down as the greatest Flames defender of all time, or at worst #2.

I really hope he's a player who finishes his career playing for only one club.

Put his sweater in the rafters? He hasn't done enough yet IMO but I expect he gets there.
