He's got some undeniable intangibles, but $7.5M/yr (so he's the Flames highest paid player) for a 20g, 60pt player, doesn't have me wanting to send out significant assets to still have the Flames not solving the RW scoring problem.
Flames had no top draft picks this year, so the next 1st should be off limits, and Valimaki looks to be a blue-chip defenseman, which should get premium value in return on his own, never mind throwing in a 1st pick and guy who still has significant upside.
