The end of his time with the Flames was tough. Playing time was hard to come by and by his own admission, Valimaki’s confidence was low.
Returning to the Scotiabank Saddledome on Monday for the first time with his new team, Valimaki spoke openly about how much the move has benefited him.
Valimaki stopped short of criticizing anyone in the Flames organization. Instead, he focused on the positives he’s experiencing with the Coyotes.After breaking through in 2018-19 and playing in 24 games, a bad knee injury forced Valimaki to miss the entire next season. “Was definitely not too much fun, but like I said, right now I’m happy and enjoying hockey and that’s all that matters.”
“I don’t really like comparing too much, but like I’ve been saying, just the positive start, talking to people and them encouraging me, trying to pump my tires in a sense that ‘You’re a good player, we want to help you, we see a lot of potential in you,’ that helped a lot,” Valimaki said. “I think that part of it kind of wasn’t present as much here, especially towards the end when you don’t play much or you don’t play necessarily the way you want or someone else wants out of you.
