Glencross and Cammy with the As. Cue the endless debate about insignificant minutia.

No surprises and I agree with the choice. Congrats to him.

Good for him. He's one of my favourite flames and one of the few net gains Darryl Sutter left us.

I wish I could wear my Dynamo Moscow Giordano jersey to the dome. Good pick, no surprise.

As expected, but I'm really happy for Gio, he's earned it.

Looking forward to seeing Gio get the cup presented to him by Bettman.

Obviously, he's the right choice...and he's great to have as a Flame...I love everything about the guy...
But, I'm still hoping all 3 of these guys get moved for futures... I think it's less likely Gio gets moved with the C, so I'm a bit sad about that.

Gio may not be the elite defenseman we need to win a cup, but he's still a very good defenseman and still young enough that he could lead a team in a playoff run in a few years. I don't think you have to get rid of every player during a rebuild.
