Curious what you base this on.

Kyllington was considered the best skater in his draft class, not named McDavid. And he showed pretty elite offensive talent as well (better numbers than Karlsson).

The concern was that he might be a headcase, and that he was a mess defensively.

He is now showing that he isn't a headcase, and that his defensive game is actually just fine for an 18 year old - though, yes it's still a small sample size.

So if the concerns are significantly deteriorated, and he still has elite skills, why would his rank not rise again to reflect that?
