It's easy to get excited about Calgary Flames defenseman Juuso Valimak...

“There’s a whole package there that has to come together and i think it will over time, but you have to look at the steps. You can’t just look at he was this or he’s that, it’s where he’s going to fit in, what his role’s going to be, how he can be effective in the league, working on his skillset – the skating part of it, the shooting part of it, the passing part of it – they’re all areas that are in that 75-80%. It’s not close to being all the way there yet.”
What is that implying if it’s saying he’s not up to snuff for nhl play? Proceeded to get sent down soon enough after these quotes and his confidence gradually shattered and play degraded with the organization. Ofc that won’t be good enough for you, if the words aren’t explicit it’s twisting words lol. The actions and deployment the team had towards him need not apply either.
He was right though, the package came together… just not under his tenure.
