If you’re an aspiring pro hockey player, it might help to follow in the footsteps of one of the pros, right?

If you have dreams of becoming an NHL player (or just want to live like one!), you could be one step closer, because former Calgary Flames captain Mark Giordano’s YYC home went up for sale this week, as reported by CTV News Calgary on May 12.

Mark Giordano was traded to the Seattle Kraken in 2021Ā and was then subsequently traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs in March 2022.

Although he hasn’t played for the Flames since spring 2021, his southwest Calgary home just hit the market. We can’t help but wonder if he had hopes of coming back to the city one day and that’s why he held onto the property for this long ā€“ we miss you Gio!
