I would argue Gio deserves to have his number retired if Vernon does. Vernon had only one solid season for the flames.

Iggy, Kipper, Vernon and Lanny all have major trophies if you include the Cup. I will admit the Lanny and Vernon jersey retirements are a little generous, but it was a very young franchise without much history and the choices seem appropriate.
Gio hasn't won any major hardware, and has VERY limited playoff success. I think he is in the same tier as Regher in this instance.
Still plenty of hockey to be played and Cups to be won.
