Nice write up by Gilbertson on Valimaki
In the article Valimaki hints that he is aiming on playing with the Flames next year, saying he wants to be a leader next year in Calgary. I like that and I think he could make a big splash next year. One of the more underrated prospects but he’s got all the tools.

It's nice to hear from him and he said similar things last off-season as well. Even if the Flames trade a defenseman I don't see Valimaki playing more than a handful of games in the NHL next season. A full season in the AHL would be very beneficial for him. Kylington should be a lot more NHL ready at this point. Andersson will take the 3rd pairing RH D spot if Stone is traded.
