From today's Calgary Herald...
"You had guys stepping up and doing what they had to do," said Craig Conroy, referring to Giordano, a rookie, and Andrei Zyuzin. "They looked like they were in form and they were excited to get in there. They did some real good things early. When you feel confident, when you feel like, 'Hey, you know what? I can make some plays. I can do some good things out here,' that's when good things happen. After Gio scored the goal, he was unbelievable the rest of the game."
Now, with the Wings up 2-1 in the best-of-seven series, Giordano may or may not dress for tonight's Game 4 at the Pengrowth Saddledome. (emphasis mine)
You have got to be F'ing kidding me. Of the 3 stand-ins - Hale, Giordano and Zyuzin - Gio has clearly proven himself the most useful. If his performance from last game doesn't at least earn him the default 6th position for now, I don't know what the hell he has to do to make this team.
