DefCon1 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 So Jusso Valimaki has been rumoured to want out of Calgary due to lack of playing time. I think he has only played like 7 games this season for Flames and is not happy. I wonder if Canucks can trade someone like Bowey or Hunt for Valimaki to address their D problem. To Calgary: Bowey 6th round pick To Vancouver: Jusso Valimaki This would give calgary someone that is cam clear waiver while giving them depth that replaces Valimaki plus a 6th round pick as a compensation. While Canucks get a much better D that needs playing time and can have a permanent pksition on Canucks 3rd pairing which has been a complete disaster.

Phil_314 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I haven't seen him play; is he a big improvement defensively over Hunt? (Brad's smaller at only 5'9" but has better stats than Valimaki with 195 GP, 19-41-60 (~0.3 points/ game, -38, 15:21 avg. TOI vs. 80 GP, 5-10-15, 15:28 avg. TOI).

Vancouver is also desparate to get a serviceable D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunt is the worst Dman that I ever saw.I would rather have Gudbranson who is playing better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elias Pettersson Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 So trade for another Finn who is a 1st round bust to replace the one we traded away. Benning might do it. He would be a massive upgrade on Hunt... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valamaki is a top end prospect will cost Vancouver Rathbone and 2nd.. Hoglander for. Valamaki.. since Sutter took or coaching Valamaki has been out… Valamaki would look great in Vancouver… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
