He'll play this year. He'll learn. He'll be better for it. Kylington is a prime example

If the Flames didn't have Mackey on a 2-year deal, I would agree. But in that tweener #6/7 role that Valimaki is in right now, Mackey could easily be in that spot and the Flames wouldn't miss a beat.

I'm sure the Flames are not actively shopping Valimaki, but if there's a team that really likes him and are willing to trade a young forward of similar pedigree, they should consider it.
