If all else is equal would you rather have Gio back or Chairot?

Correlation does not equal causation. Anyone saying this D Corp is better because Gio is gone is providing an incredibly lazy analysis. This team is better because Sutter had 30 games with them last year and a full training camp this year to instill his system, expectations, and style of play.

I am not big on spending prime assets for a Dman when this team is clearly struggling up the middle. Getting a depth blueliner for cheap would be fine but any more prime assets should be used on improving the bottom 6 or in a dream world second line C.

If we could get Gio back I would welcome him with open arms. This team is poised for a run and I would love Gio to be part of it. The unfortunate part is the team doesn’t have the cap or assets to make it work. I do disagree with anyone who thinks Gio being gone is the reason this team is elite defensively. They would have been either way
