After he doesn't play will Valimaki have 2 ELC years left or just 1?

If 2019-20 doesn't count as a ELC year for him and he was able to play either conditioning in the AHL or in this years playoffs, he has a legit grievance. His RFA pay off is moved out 2 years compared to Tkachuk and the Flames seem to be taking extraordinary steps to keep his earnings down

With their hardball treatment of Mangiapane (taking a salary cut to play this year) and now Valimaki the Flames are showing the hard side of the hockey business.
