Midway thru the season I would have said they would not take him. Now I think they would. Still a good defenceman, a name for the fans to notice, tradable for picks in his last year of the current contract. Lots of teams would give up pretty good assets for Gio if they have the cap space and are looking to contend. As long as his skills don’t evaporate.
