Credit to Ryan Leslie for the scoop, with the return still to-be-determined:
Giordano is a former Norris Trophy winner who is now 38-years-old. Though the veteran defenseman has declined in his offensive game relative to his 2019 Norris win, all indicators point to him still being an excellent defensive defenseman.
Giordano spent the first 15 years of his career in Calgary, where he ranks second in franchise history in games played. He received Norris votes every season from 2013-14 to 2018-19, but his age and contract ($6.9 M cap hit) led the Flames to expose Giordano in the 2021 expansion draft.
