Young Guns RC. Valimaki was the 16th overall pick in 2017 from Nokia, Finland — an offense-first defenseman who starred for the Tri-City Americans in the WHL. His skating and puck-moving ability drew comparisons to Finnish greats like Kimmo Timonen. The Finnish pipeline of NHL defensemen (Heiskanen, Lindell, Valimaki) is world-class.
