I have a Valimaki jersey! I can see a future where he gets his skating to a point where he's capable of being a third-pair NHL defender, but I don't think it'll be this year and I am really doubtful that it'll be in Calgary.
I'm rooting for him but I also have to call it like I see it. He struggled badly for the Heat during their playoff run, to the point where he was playing on the third pair in pretty limited minutes.
