"Has been" would have to include his play this year because it happened, in other words it's in the past. And based on Gio's play this year and his age, we can reasonably predict how he's going to play out the rest of it. Any reasonable person can make that prediction. It's not rocket science.

"Weak footing"? Oh god. I just can't anymore. Have fun with whatever half-baked attempt you come up with to try and undermine my position. Signing Gio for 6 years when he was already entering his mid 30s was a bad idea, nothing here comes close to changing my mind. Sorry.
This has been an odd discussion.

The data is on your side for this season and likely for next ... if you get a chance it's a contract you should probably move.

There isn't a lot of work for you to do here.

So why are you trying to go back in time and find a way to discredit previous seasons when that, even if you were successful, wouldn't change the statement above.

His numbers in shot suppression, and expected goal splits relative to his offence has been very good for the first four years of his contract. The numbers are pretty clear. But that doesn't change the fact that he's struggling now, and given the team's issues he's a player that they should look at moving.
