Remember it was 7-3 or 8 skaters.
So under the 8 skaters you in theory are going Gio, Andersson, Tanev and Hanifin on the back end plus Gaudreau, Lindholm, Tkachuk, Eat Bread
Exposing Monahan, Backlund and Dube.
Even if you are comfortable with Monahan and Backlund being exposed, are you comfortable exposing Dube?

Not to mention protecting a 38 year old would have been the dumbest thing ever.
Gio was -3 last night in a butt kicking for those keeping score. He isn't Norris Gio anymore and will be done sooner rather than later.
