I imagine Ducks, Wild, and Oilers fans may have issue with some of their players being injured by Gio. I don't think Gio is dirty or has ever intended to injure anyone but he has been involved in a few of the knee to knee incidents. There is something about Edmonton fans whether they be Oilers or Eskimos but their hate for the Calgary teams is of the more primitive knuckle dragging variety.
