Suck on that bud.
Gio definitely showed he's slowing down this past year
I'm one of those who'd love to see Gio gets traded while his value is high (like the chart u shared)
He can be replaced

His contract will be over when he is 34. That is the age that Gio is this fall when he starts the last 5 years of his 6.75M NTC.
Gio is at least twice as good though...he should make 8

do you watch the Flames? it was one of Gio's best seasons for people who don't just look at offensive stats

That is a foolish and unpopular opinion in my opinion.

That would be because he has built such a solid big game reputation in his 8 playoff games.

Just imagine how poor the Flames would have done in the Playoffs without Gio.

Front loaded. Should be enticing to some teams a couple years down the road assuming his play doesn't totally fall off. Limited NTC last 2 years.

Does this equate to 4.75mil/year cap hit?
