Kylington is too low. He did not look like a 19 year old often in a mens league last year and I suspect this is a classic case of over-scrutiny of his flaws. He is such a strong skater that Flames fans and media have decided he must go the Rico Fata route... but in truth he does a lot exceptionally well. Don't forget he was named Sweden's top player after the Bronze Medal game... a game where he didn't even hit the stat sheet.

A few years ago I believe Haynes was far too harsh on Jankowski (15th?) and now he has him in his top two. I am expecting something similar two years from now with Oliver Kylington.
