Giordano may be that old, but he's still the captain and likely playing at a pretty high level until he's 40.
How likely is that?

In my opinion, it's a big risk banking on any player to be playing at a high level when he is 40-years-old. Joe Thornton just played out his 40-year-old season, and he looks like he might be done. Bear in mind that while Giordano will be 37-yeats-old at the time of the expansion draft he will be entering the 2021 season at 38. As good as Giordano is today I am still thinking long and hard about protecting him in expansion.
