If Valimaki were exposed would the Flames offer Kylington and a 3rd for Seattle to pick Gio?

They would have either made a trade like COL-NJD, or simply exposed Gio and Tanev instead of Valimaki.

Yes. But one of five 3rd rd picks have a decent chance of panning out. You might even find a Norris winner or back-to-back Conn Smythe runner-up. At some point you have to stop pissing those picks away (or better yet just don't start pissing until you're a contender).
