Seems like the players that end up being solid NHLers tend to follow Brodie's progression of 1 full AHL season and another part to get the grasp of the pro game. Even undrafted Gio had only 2 full AHL seasons.
Hamonic had 19 AHL games. Stone a season and a half. Hamilton no AHL games.
The time for Kylington and Andersson is now.

You want it challenging.
If the NHL team has nothing then kids get promoted prematurely and gifted jobs; we've seen how that works out.
If Kylington or Andersson or Fox or Valimaki kick the door down then the Flames are in a great position to move a veteran for a high pick. That's a great scenario.
