All things that should be weighed.

Yeah assuming Giordano doesn't crater he's exactly the type of player that teams would over pay for ... looked what Foligno and his gritty leadership cost.
But what if you make that call and the Flames are a bubble team? They likely don't deal Giordano and potentially risk him walking for nothing (though that seems remote to be honest).
Chances are the Flames don't do anything to keep Seattle from selecting him, but they don't take him anyway, and they either squeak into the playoffs with him as the captain or move him if they flop next year.
