In regards to Valimaki I just don't get the insistence on playing him with replacement level talent (stone, nesterov, and gudbranson) and expecting him to look like a top four defender. I don't think it's a coincidence that Kylington looked as good as he did when paired next to Tanev. I would like to see Valimaki next to Tanev and Kylington next to Zadorov during this preseason.
