January, 2015: 12th. Crouse, Rantanen, Marner, Provorov, and Zacha jumped ahead.
February, 2015. 12th.
March, 2015. 24th. This was his biggest drop.
April, 2015. 24th.
May, 2015: Outside top 30.
June, 2015: Outside top 30.
Draft Day: 60th.

I find it quite interesting that Kylington dropped from #5 to #60 in only 8-9 months.
He also dropped from 24th to 60th in less than 3 months, when far less hockey was being played.

He's certainly a project but he has a ton of upside. That's why the Flames were smart to get him to North America this year. Another great move by BT.
This is what gives me the most hope. He was dropping after the season, for the most part. Still a project and I don't think he has much of a hope this year to make the big club, but well worth the risk at 60.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
