Something went wrong with him and the Flames was partly responsible.

If the Flames had kept Valimaki, he would have sat anyway, because he needed the playing time to develop. Just like Mackey, he would have been on a short leash.
He'd likely be sitting in the press box and fans would be complaining that he was a wasted draft pick because he's not showing any signs of development.
