I am more comfortable thinking of Kylington, Hickey, Andersson and Shinkaruk as A- rather than B+.

How about tiers something like this (edits welcome):

A++ Franchise build the team around
A+ Long Career NHL 1st line forward; 1-2D; starting goalie likely
A Long Career NHL Top 6 forward; top 4D; NHL 1B or backup goalie at least
A- Definite multiyear NHL career somewhere in line-up NHL>>AHL/KHL
B+ Probable multiyear NHL career somewhere in line-up NHL>AHL/KHL
B AHL/KHL>NHL tweener
B- AHL/KHL>>NHL tweener
C A few NHL games at best over entire career
D Career AHL, KHLer only- no NHL games ever
It must be the offseason....
