I think the 6 k less for Valimaki doesn’t out weigh buying an extra ELC year if they keep him in the AHL. That said I still think Valimaki forces their hand for a 9 game look.
Kylington is interesting though as I feel he could be much better and has a greater overall skill set versus Kulak and could steal that 3rd left side spot.
We could see a Byron moment after all and lose him via the waiver wire if they can’t find a mid to late pick for him.
