Kylington has been nearly perfect today, short of the pinch that let Karnaukhov head in on a break. He's so much like Brodie it's insane. Below his own hashmarks he's alright but not great, and in the offensive zone he can do nice things but he's nothing exceptional, but everywhere else he just dominates. His breakouts are precise and reliable, his zone entries are solid, and his defensive recoveries have been top notch.
If the Flames were only interested in having their 7 best defensemen on the roster I definitely think that he would be on the Flames right now. Stockton is still the right place for him but I dont think it will be long before he's a regular.
