Vegas has an abundance of prospects. The flames farm is thin and Valimaki is the only blue chip prospect. Asking Treliving to ship him for a guy who may not of signed is a bit ridiculous. Vegas got extremely lucky that a player like that was available and they had the prospect depth and cap space to make it work. We don’t even know if the Sens would have chosen a Valimaki offer over Brannstrom and Vegas probably would have won a bidding war. It sucks to see him go to a divisional rival but it just wasn’t a fit like it was for Vegas. Credit to Vegas, they used the expansion draft perfectly.
