If he is healthy and back on track, he’s in our top 4 this year without question. He’ll be playing 20 minutes a night.
I would be entirely comfortable with Giordano - Valimaki - Mackey - Kylington as our NHL LHD depth.

Ya I believe I saw Byron Bader mention something about how NHLe progression wise Valimaki and those big 3 rookie d men were very similar. Hard not to get your hopes up with this guy and he is going to come in to the season already in mid season form too.
