Top that off with Kylington and a bargain UFA sounds pretty good to me.
The days of overpaying for veteran bottom 2 defenceman should be behind us. Trust the youth that has earned the opportunity. Kylington deserves to be an every day defenceman - that pushes Valimaki to the 2nd pairing, which might be a bit much but not a huge reach.

Brodie is a UFA and the Flames traded him a year ago. If I'm Brodie, I'd test the market.
