EDIT: The reason we aren't hearing about the Flames in rumours giving up picks and young players for Chychrun is because they are going to give up picks and young players for Giordano at the deadline.

I highly doubt they are going to trade for Gio . If Tre wouldn’t pay a first round pick to retain Gio for the whole year , I can’t see him paying the same price for a couple of months of Gio. My guess is Gio signs back as a ufa in the summer. Gio on the bottom pair would be a big upgrade on zadarov.
As for Chychrun I hope Tre has given up on having the best d on paper roster. If he is spending picks and prospects it has to be for legit top 6 players .
