Huska was in charge of the Flames' D from Valimaki's first NHL game. He probably knows better than anyone what he can bring to the team, how well he would fit the room and his GAF meter. That's why I wouldn't be too upset if he comes back, but also why I don't see it happening.
Personally, I don't want Valimaki taking a roster spot this year and next. The Flames have too many bottom pairing D as is.
PS: If the stars align and we end up as sellers at the TD I hope we trade/move 3-4 D-men. That will create an opportunity for the Flames D prospects.
