Why is it so hard for people to admit that they BOTH elevate each other’s games?
No one is saying Giordano wasn’t still a top defensemen with Hamilton.

So the argument is what then? It's pretty obvious Gio doesn't need Brodie to perform as a number one defenseman. IMO the only reason he wasn't in the Norris conversation with Hamilton is because Hamilton actually has an NHL caliber shot unlike Brodie which meant that there was less opportunity for Gio to collect as many points paired with Hamilton. Seems to me like Gio is so flexible that he can make it work whether it's carrying Brodie offensively or Hamilton defensively.
