Should Florida Panthers’ General Manager Dale Tallon make a concentrated effort in potentially re-signing the sensational AHL playmaker, as means of retaining a valuable depth piece and contributing tremendously towards the T-Birds’ overall success?
Signed as a UFA by the Florida Panthers during the 2017 NHL offseason, play-making centerman Curtis Valk was widely considered an afterthought regarding earning a 2018 opening day lineup spot.
While spending practically the entirety of the 2016-17 pro-hockey campaign playing for the Utica Comets, the undersized, 5’9″ ft. centerman registered a respectable slash line of 16G, 30A, combining for 46 points, while participating in 75 AHL regular season games.
