Description
Heard this rumor recently, I don't completely understand it and there are probably more pieces on the move but this is the foundation. I believe a 2nd round pick was also being sent to New York as part of the deal but I'm less certain about that. Thoughts?

Gio was named Seattle's Captain, no? I wouldn't believe this proposed rumor.

Giordano was not named Seattle's Captain. I doubt he gets moved anyways...they probably wouldn't have invited him to the Draft party just to trade him the next day.

I know there are rumors, but why trade a guy you had come out in a jersey in person during the expansion draft? Just seems like a weird move if they do move him before the season starts.

Trading Gio after inviting him to the draft party and using him for promo materials for the team would alienate potential fans in the Seattle market. No way they are going to actually trade him to the Rangers until at least trade deadline.

I'm under the assumption that the Giordano trade fell through last minute on Wednesday morning. My guess is that the Rangers wanted more (i.e. a 2nd) and Seattle decided to back out.
