Kevin is 25 years old.

While obviously not over the hill, he's hardly "very young", and I don't think we should be expecting him to find another level. It's not like he's still physically maturing or anything. He has a bit of room to grow as he has relatively little NHL experience, but that will be incremental progress, not revolutionary.

He basically is what he is.

What he is, however, is also highly underrated. He's the 4th best defenseman on the Flames in my book, and would be the 3rd best defenceman on some NHL teams.

Also, the Oilers are garbage, and the Flames should feel shame for losing to them.

Losing to Edmonton is never acceptable.
