Bah that rhetoric is so overblown it's just like the need for a face puncher in the lineup way of thinking. Prout makes the Flames a far worse team than they are with Kylington either on or off his game. If everyone learned so much from watching, all these healthy scratches around the league would be all star material by now.
Good players/prospects learn from bad games. Providing them with the chance to redeem themselves is how you better them on and off the ice. I don't mind sitting him at this stage, but not when the alternative is an extremely flawed and limited player that has no chance of getting better at this point in his career.
